The long wing of the building along Simpson Street is clad in brick, employing abstract projected brick rows between windows to break up the weight of the 7 story facade. The corner section, featuring the church space, has a contrasting rainscreen facade with irregularly patterned panels that provide a lively counterpoint to the brick, denoting the change in function and highlighting the church’s presence to passers-by. One of the larger buildings in the area, the colors and textures of the facade, and the terraced massing nod to its lower-rise neighbors, seeking to respond to them rather than overwhelm.

The building was designed with rising energy costs in mind, utilizing a VRF system in all spaces paired with an energy recovery ventilator than reuses the tempered exhaust air, lowering the amount of energy required to heat and cool the building. Windows are unplasticized polyvinyl chloride (uPVC) framed, set within a cavity wall system to optimize thermal resistance, beneath a combination cool roof/green roof system.
