When the folks at Park Cities Presbyterian Church asked us if we could help design their new organ case, we suggested using a “Design Team” to facilitate the process. The Team started the first day meeting with the church organ selection and design committee. The committee shared their wants and needs. After thanking them for their input, the Team went to work pulling all of their ideas together in a design that met the needs of function, budget, and design.
At the end of the second day, the church committee enthusiastically directed us to proceed with the final drawings based on the design “cartoon” the Team had created. The result is the grand beauty of the case in the following picture.

The members and friends of Park Cities Presbyterian Church are now enjoying their beautiful newly renovated worship space.

Computer Aided Design will be used later, but pencil and tracing paper are the first tools of designer Carlton Clark.
A very important consideration of any design effort is cost. Here Brad Kurtz, New Holland cost estimator reviews design details with Carlton to make sure the design that is emerging will fit the budget of our client.
The results of the Team effort….enthusiastic direction for us to proceed and build this magnificent Organ Case.
A dream becoming reality.
Completed organ case along with new chancel railings and furniture.
Two antiphonal Organ Cases were also required for this project. Here you can view the concept sketch also created by the Design Team.
In addition to the two new Antiphonal Organ Cases, the church also asked us to design and build the new balcony facing seen here.
Spectacular Results! - We want to thank the good people of Park Cities for giving us this opportunity to be of service to them.
