Congratulations to Gould Evans! St. Teresa Academy’s Windmoor Center was ranked by Arch Daily as one of the top visited architecture sites in the U.S. PMA is proud to have been the structural engineer for this project, and proud to hail from Kansas City!
“The 150-seat chapel and classroom building creates a new spiritual and academic center for the school that is progressive yet rooted in its history. The design creates a balance between the sacred and secular academic programs, exemplifying the core values of the school.
Based on a survey of students and faculty, the vision for the chapel emerged as a soft, feminine, contemplative space of worship flooded with light and connected to nature, while connecting to the narrative of St. Teresa, the patron saint of lace makers. The state-of-the-art classrooms also serve as a banquet space when combined; they are housed in a soft-edged brick form with tall windows that responds to existing campus buildings.
The sacred and secular elements come together as one rich architecture that not only completes the open end of the campus quad, but also serves as the new gateway to campus.”
