Strategic design solutions for God’s kingdom in Europe

  1. Strategy: helping you think strategically about your present and future needs and how best to meet them.
  2. Design: taking those needs and turning them into designs for better buildings. We work with you to determine what you need and how it should look.
  3. Presentation: we create presentations of these designs for you to use in sharing them with the people who are involved, either users or donors, as well as developing the drawings you’ll need to get permission to build, and then to build.
