Planning, Architecture, & Design For Religious Institutions

Renewal & Respect
In addition to new construction, our team regularly helps churches re-envision their existing spaces. We provide church architecture services that honor the history of your sacred space while adapting it for your contemporary needs. We understand the impact a redesign can have on your church community and help you develop spaces where everyone feels welcome.

Crafting Sacred Spaces
Our sanctuary design approach blends reverence, functionality, and beauty. We create worship spaces that foster community, reflection, and spiritual connection while addressing acoustics, lighting, seating, and accessibility. From traditional sanctuaries to contemporary houses of worship, our team ensures that every design supports meaningful experiences for congregations while meeting practical and code requirements.

Beyond the Fellowship Hall
Today’s churches require more than a single gathering space. Many have expanded their community outreach to include education, recreation, and even entertainment. We work closely with our church architecture clients to seamlessly integrate these new functions into their campus while preserving the sacred integrity of their worship spaces.

Pipe Organ Architecture
Designing for pipe organs within church architecture requires specialized expertise, as these instruments are often central to a congregation’s identity and experience. At Cole & Denny, we create thoughtful designs that optimize acoustics, functionality, and longevity, while ensuring the organ is visually stunning and harmoniously integrated into the space.
Architectural Design for Memorial Spaces
We help churches care for and honor their communities now and for the future. Our church architecture services include a variety of memorial spaces designed specifically for your needs and to fit your space. We provide planning and design for cemeteries and mausoleums as well as columbariums and memorial gardens.

It’s always a joy to have a chance to work with clients on designing and planning religious spaces. We love to see the care and intention that goes into church architecture, from the client and from our team. Jim Palmer Senior Project Manager
