Northbrook Church

Richfield, WI

The multi-level 31,000 square foot addition includes a new 800+ theatrical style worship space, gathering/fellowship space, café, bookstore, meeting space, youth and adult education space and restrooms. Both the new and existing worship space rely heavily on technology, specialty lighting and acoustics. The existing worship is intended to serve as overflow worship seating at heavily attended worship services. 

The main venue can stream live video to the second space so attendees can experience the same service in tandem. The existing worship space was renovated and classrooms were created in the old balcony.

A large double-sided fireplace is a focal point in the gathering space providing intimate seating areas on three sides. Amenities such as ‘touch-down’ technology/charging stations, coffee areas, and family restrooms and a parenting area provide flexibility and contribute to the offerings the new space provides.
