The expansion of the Trinity Methodist Church in East Grinstead, England signals a new direction for the church and its congregation. The glowing and uplifting ambiance created by Kalwall庐 translucent sandwich panels beautifully illuminates that message.
The historic landmark, built in 1938, has undergone a series of renovations and new construction under the direction of CPL Architects of East Sussex to increase capacity and enhance the facility鈥檚 capabilities as a performance center.
The second phase of the project was a grand worship center featuring several sections of Kalwall curtainwall with operable glazing units at the top and a stunning pyramid skylight. The center is flooded with natural daylight by day and emanates a peaceful glow when lit at night.
While providing a lighting aesthetic ideal for a place of worship, Kalwall also offers privacy within the church and prevents both glare and shadows during the day. Together, the curtainwall and pyramid help create a modern and striking look to the exterior of the church.
