Lakeway Church
The Lakeway Church’s 25,000-square-foot campus expansion included construction of new worship and fellowship areas to help serve the growing Lake Travis community. It also included a grand covered walkway to tie together the existing campus with the new additions. The new sanctuary showcases a cross-hatched ceiling comprised of glulam beams — a feature that required extensive coordination and planning.Temple High School Swim Center
Renovation of Temple High School’s early 1970s swim center facility required a complete rebuild of the building’s steel structure frame. The competition space also included an expansion to include public restrooms, class and weight room space, and a concessions area. The team helped the mechanical engineer design an air movement system to prevent corrosion of the facility for decades to come.Stacy Kaye Danielson Middle School
