Holy Family Catholic Church

Excelsis Projects completed beautification and renovation works to the Holy Family Catholic Church in Menai NSW.

Prior to the works, the interior of the church had an unconventional layout and simple liturgical fixtures that was consistent with its contemporary and minimalist style. With a sparse altar, blank walls and plastic chairs, the parishioners of Holy Family desired a space that was beautiful and inspired a deeper spiritual connection.

Plans for a new interior were designed by Michael Suttie, architect, and included a new sanctuary, confessional, choir stage and congregational seating. For the new sanctuary, thirty-six tonnes of marble was imported to build a new altar, a two-storey high reredos, baptismal font, ambo and bas-relief sculpture. The flawless execution of these elements is a testament to the dedication and craftsmanship of our talented team.

“What we were presenting fell outside of the ordinary scope of the kind of works that are completed here in Australia, and yet Christian was up to the task. He came on board with the team and he was able to execute above the standards that we were expecting. I can say with great confidence that Christian and his team have worked successfully with us across all levels of the project.”
