Magnolia Baptist Church
Steel Ceilings, Inc.
Contractor: Tri-City Acoustics
Architect: J7 Architecture
Acoustician: Acoustic Distinctions
Designed by J7 Architecture in Newport Beach, CA the Magnolia Baptist Church project in Riverside, CA was originally designed around a real wood product, but costs and job site conditions determined it was not economical or feasible to do. The project was designed with 32 individual ceiling clouds, that were radiused around one constant center point. Using torsion spring panels, the ceiling was able to cover just less than 5,000 sf of ceiling space. Architect Terry Jacobson summarized "...the Steel Ceilings, Inc. system looks like wood and gives us the warmth we wanted; the result is both functional and aesthetically beautiful."
