Addition for East Koshkonong Lutheran Church!

We were proud to support NCI Roberts Construction in creating a thoughtful and accessible addition for East Koshkonong Lutheran Church in Cambridge. The 315-square-foot expansion enhances accessibility with a new wheelchair-accessible concrete ramp, stairs, and designated parking. A canopy extension now provides shelter over the entry and landing. Inside, a new vestibule featuring stained glass windows complements the church’s historic design, and a fully compliant unisex restroom adds function and inclusivity just off the entryway.

Construction Complete - Elmbrook Church Renovation

Brookfield, Wisconsin

Thrive Architects worked with Elmbrook Church to solve interior space planning challenges and improve wayfinding elements throughout the building. We focused on creative ways to design engaging areas for fellowship which complemented the existing building interiors. Some of the solutions included designing information areas that were highly visible to each of the lobby (narthex) entrances, establishing coffee common spaces to improve fellowship and incorporating a welcome center which could serve as a main gathering space for after service ministries.
