WORK THAT SPEAKS FOR ITSELF

EVERY PROJECT BEGINS WITH A COMMUNITY: THEIR NEEDS, THEIR ASPIRATIONS, AND THE SPECIFIC CONTEXT OF THE PLACE THEY’RE BUILDING FOR. WHAT FOLLOWS IS A COLLABORATIVE PROCESS THAT ENDS NOT WITH A BUILDING, BUT WITH A PLACE PEOPLE CHOOSE TO RETURN TO.

PROJECTS

Fort Worth, TX | JST Studio

Greenwood Funeral Home

A 20,000-square-foot funeral home built around glass, light, and privacy. A 180-foot visitation corridor opens onto mature oak trees, while each family suite includes its own private courtyard, so grieving families never have to share space with anyone else during their visit.

Orlando, FL | JST Studio

Queen of Angels Catholic Cemetery

The first phase of an eight-acre Catholic cemetery for the Diocese of Orlando. A columbarium and arrangement building frame a courtyard overlooking a fountain, while a cremation garden with stone arbors and a mosaic wall gives families a peaceful place to gather.

Prosper, TX | Learning Studio

Prestonwood Christian Academy

Three phases over nearly two decades turned a single worship campus into a full school building the academy now shares with the church. The newest phase adds science labs, floor-to-ceiling glass, a second gymnasium with a stage, and a student commons full of natural light.
