The original did anything but complement the church. It was boxy and soulless, the complete opposite of the church. The original design looked like it was devouring the church with boxy lines and non-complementary materials.
This new design takes it's cues from the design elements of the church from it's arched windows to the matching brick style in the podium structure.
This one knocks it out of the park imo. I'll take it over that hack job of a first proposal they came up with.
