WAVE Church

Tymoff+Moss Architects have designed two separate campus master plans and five buildings for the church. TMA was tasked with master planning a unified campus that would be phased around existing buildings and phased demolition. The $15 million mixed-use, 77,750-SF Convention Center contains a 2,500-seat theatre, two bookstores, two coffee shops, meeting rooms, offices, classrooms, and child-minding space.

The 2,500-seat theatre is column-free, with roof trusses clear-spanning 165 feet. The Convention Center connects to the Epi-Center, the first phase of the campus. The Epi-Center includes an early childhood education learning center/pre-school, office and meeting space, a recording studio and classrooms.

Kroc Center of Hampton Roads

Completed in April 2014, the Kroc Center of Hampton Roads is 90,000-square-foot, $32 million, two-story multi-use building in Norfolk. The main components of community, fitness, and entry are readily apparent in the building with the connectors reduced to their minimum.

The community side contains classrooms, community meeting rooms, a commercial kitchen, teen lounge, and an auditorium. The fitness side contains an exercise and weight-lifting area, full-size gymnasium, locker rooms, elevated jogging track, fitness classrooms, and a large leisure pool and water park. The entry component of the building encompasses the main lobby, cafe, child-watch, and an administrative office.

The Kroc Center houses programs for Hampton Roads residents of all ages and abilities. In accordance with the Kroc family’s wishes, there is a sliding membership scale and scholarship opportunities.
