架构师提供的文本描述。该项目是一个翻新和设计一个新的入口，一个标志性的世纪中叶西北现代派教堂，由施泰因哈特/特里奥在1962年设计。破旧的50年前的建筑需要一个新的礼拜仪式空间来围绕一个新的浸入式洗礼艺术家设计的字体，以及无障碍，结构和能源升级。我们需要谨慎的选择，以消除多年积累的、破坏了强大空间的修缮工作。

Text description provided by the architects. The project is a renovation of and design of a new entry addition to an iconic mid-century Northwest Modernist church, designed by Steinhart/Theriault in 1962. The worn 50 year old structure required a new liturgical space for gatherings around a new full-immersion baptismal artist-designed font, as well as accessibility, structural and energy upgrades. Careful choices about stripping away the years of accumulated renovations that had marred the powerful space were required.

一个新的透明入口，进入非常城市，坚韧不拔的商业街创造了一个新的公共导向的空间，聚集周围的新字体。戏剧性的屋顶上的几何图形被巧妙地运用在新的加法中，以创造一种与现有结构的关系，而不模仿它的标志性戏剧。一个新的瓦艺术玻璃墙唤起详细的强大的铜瓦的外部取代了现有的廉价，1960年的塑料薄膜涂层单玻璃。该项目是在最近的经济衰退期间启动并完成的，会众给予了极大的精力，预算为85美元/SF。

 A new transparent entry out to the very urban, gritty commercial street creates a new public oriented space for gatherings around the new font. Geometries from the dramatic roof are subtly used in the new addition to create a relationship to the existing structure, without imitating its iconic drama. A new shingled art glass wall evoking detailing of the powerful copper shingles of the exterior replaces the existing cheap, 1960’s plastic film coated-single pane glass. The project was initiated and completed during the recent economic downturn, with extreme energy from the congregation, on budget at $85/sf.

内部，新铸，树脂着色艺术玻璃持有自定义挤压铝夹子框架，新的绝缘玻璃单位的东西墙壁取代了视觉冲突和能源无效率的现有玻璃。内殿达到了一个新完成的祭坛平台与一个新的艺术家设计的祭坛。祭坛后面的60英尺高的墙是用建筑师设计的艺术油漆装饰的，照亮了整个教堂。新的照明照亮了戏剧性的中叶结构，通过细节和材料给空间带来了内聚力的设计。

Inside, new cast, resin-tinted art glass held by custom extruded aluminum clips frames new insulated glass units on the East and West walls replacing the visual clash and energy inefficiency of the existing glass. The nave culminates in a newly finished altar platform with a new artist-designed altar. The 60’ high wall behind the altar was treated with an architect-designed artistic paint that illumines the entire church. New lighting illuminates the dramatic mid-century structure bringing cohesive design through detailing and materials to the space.
