St John's Anglican Church Penshurst Building Renovation Design Proposals

The Building Committee has had several discussions and design proposals, and now we would like your feedback on the proposed concept design.

We have a limited budget for the works which we do not want to exceed. As far as possible, we have tried to work within the existing building footprint through careful re-modelling to make better use of our existing space.

The main features are:

​

• Enclosing the breezeway between the hall and church with glass walls and doors, to make a more useful foyer/welcome space.
   

• Enclosing the verandah for sound, comfort and security.
   

• Repositioning the staff offices to the foyer.
   

• Moving the kitchen (keeping it the same size) to Bart’s old office. This will create better flow with 2 wide doors into this fellowship space.
   

• Enlarging the basement classroom to make two classrooms with new storage and toilet for both.
   

• Building a new entrance foyer downstairs to provide level access to the two basement classrooms.
   

• Reconfiguring the existing breezeway roof to remove box gutters, improve central height and let more light into kitchen area.
