Emerged

Working directly with the client, zimmerraystudios developed a program, a form, and a plan that exceeded expectations.  A simple, well designed structure made for efficient and cost effective construction.  The contemporary, yet distinctive material pallet and form provide a lasting impression for the students, the congregation and community at large.
