True art has two components: the elementary and the local. Artists and artisans create the works for living people, a living market. They are immersed in the local environment and are aware of the universal environment. Their best works arise from a close collaboration . . .
| We worked closely with the parish and sculptor, Jerzy Kenar, creating St. Bernard's ONE Cross. It is more than a static object at the top of the church. It extends from the entrance to the site more than 700 feet to the interior of the church. One part of it is dynamic. | Journey Cross | |
| This entrance door looks like it's always been here. But, in fact, it was added to make St. Mark's church readily accessible to everyone and provide additional protection from the winter winds. | Gothic Door | |
| Liquid delivers the Waters of Baptism. | Liquid Font | |
| There's a material that animates our vision and focuses our attention. | Reflections | |
| The top of St. Elzabeth Seton can be seen from miles in all directions. The Millennium Cross's geometry will show a cross shape in all directions. | Millennium Cross |

| This 75 foot high tower with Cross is a visible sign of the St. Rita Casia community. | Tower Cross | |
| The iron screens at Mt. Assisi define and redfine the flexible chapels. | soft iron |
