Indicum was hired by the Uppsala congregation of the Church Livets Ord to work on their assembly hall, entrance and café areas. The work involved solving the logistics of large gatherings for visitors to the church and various types of meetings in the assembly hall.

Challenge

The challenge was the low budget and the fact that a large part of the rebuilding would be done by the church staff themselves. The rooms needed a completely new use as the assembly hall was previously the school canteen for the Word of Life secondary school and the entrance and café areas needed a clearer division of space.

Solution

We have worked with a meeting room for the Word of Life Parish in Uppsala, where with simple means and a low budget, the room has been transformed into a functional space with flexible use where it is pleasant and inspiring to be. The room has undergone a transformation from an uninspired school canteen to a splendid orangery.
