Forward Church

New Albany, IN

Project Description

Project Overview

This church campus, transformed from a repurposed commercial printing facility, features a welcoming lobby space that blends polished concrete with soft seating to create an industrial yet inviting atmosphere. The central gathering area, known as the “Third Place,” serves as a flexible and comfortable lobby space complete with a portable information center—ideal for connecting before and after services.

A key highlight of the facility is the secure and engaging kids space, thoughtfully designed to offer age-appropriate environments for learning and play.

Additional features include a 350-seat worship space, a green room for the worship team and guests, and a dedicated youth venue with its own separate entrance.
