Open Chch: Oxford Terrace Baptist Tours

ARCHITECT
Andrew Barrie Lab, 2017
The church as a village is the driving concept behind this complex yet welcoming building, which houses offices, a cafe,a public venue for hire and spaces for music and worship.

A controlled palette of colours and materials runs through the structure, tying these elements together and creating a calm, refined atmosphere. Bare concrete block, warm timber and polished concrete floors provide contrast and richness to the exemplary finishing and details of a beautifully constructed building.

Open Christchurch wishes to thank the building partner, Oxford Terrace Baptist, for participating in our 2021 programme.
