The Grove / Debartolo Architects

Perspective 01

Debartolo Architects were commissioned to develop a master plan for the growing church in a satellite community of Metro-Phoenix. developed a new language for a church that named themselves after an existing pistachio grove that once and still partially thrives on their 22 acre site. With three existing buildings, built by the congregation and designed by volunteers, the idea was to develop a more strategic approach to the next generation of development, growth and use of the entire site.
