Future Church: Global Church
- Jun 20, 2015
The Challenge
The church is growing rapidly in countries where there are limited resources. This team was tasked with developing a concept where large churches in countries with resources could provide structures that would be easily implementable in underdeveloped global areas in a variety of climates and terrains.
The Big Idea
The Global Church relies on infrastructure that can be drop-shipped and completed with indigenous materials. The design is affordable, secure, sustainable and repeatable in different climates. Details and features of the global church include:
- Water storage and electricity generation
- Light materials are affordable to drop ship but strong and durable once welded
- Resilient in rainy and dry climates.
- Masonry wall with indigenous materials serves as security and can be painted/finished by local artists.
