Love Church Omaha
LEO A DALY partnered with Love Church Omaha to design a new, permanent home for the congregation. Prior to complete design, we provided programming verification, concept design and graphic support for a “Build the House” fundraising campaign. The total project cost is roughly $13 million, which includes state-of-the-art audio, video and lighting systems.
Exceptional acoustical outcomes informed material selection, and our lighting-design team leveraged the physics of light to develop realistic lighting animations and renderings. Through close collaboration between our designers and Love Church, we evaluated a variety of potential lighting configurations and fixtures. The result is a user experience that is immersive and distraction-free, achieved at optimum value. Enclosed using pre-cast concrete, the 38,000 square-foot building benefits from a cost-effective and constructable design.
A 360-degree viewable fireplace adorns the main lobby space using an innovative suspension design. Construction was completed in December 2020, and the congregation celebrated its grand opening on Christmas Eve.
