Programming   Our years of experience will be beneficial to you and your building committee, as we work together to create a building plan that is both beautiful and functional. As you begin contemplating the vision that the Lord has given you regarding your new building, it is essential to develop a list of needs/wants (program) for the components that will be a part of the new building(s) and overall masterplan. The R. Messner Design Team will use this specific list of needs/wants to help formulate a functional floorplan that is relevant to the overall masterplan by analyzing and considering the square footage requirements and placement/relationship requirements of each desired ministry area. We will also be able to determine whether the square footage needed for your list of needs/wants lines up with the budget, which may ultimately dictate the Phase-1 building square footage and future phasing options. Some of the key elements of your program list should include your desired number of seats in sanctuary, number of classrooms, number of offices, etc. For reference, we have listed below some of the main use-areas of a church that may be applicable to your project:

Foyer   Sanctuary   Platform Support Area   Prayer Room   Nursery/Preschool   Children's Church

Education/Classrooms   Youth   Administration   Fellowship/Kitchen   Other
