BMor Creative was to selected to provide a finish refresh on this existing Pre-K school for Trinity Baptist Church. It was immediately determined that the refresh needed to be fun, energetic and was to provide intuitive wayfinding for both children and parents. The building consists of a series of corridors with alcoves providing entry to classrooms and nurseries.

The solution was to use color to not only highlight the existing architecture, but to code the different areas of the building. Trinity loved the idea and followed suite by renaming the classrooms and updating the signage to reflect the colored zone they were located in. Colorful artwork and murals were then created to tie in the palette and showcase the "Trinity Kids" brand.

To turn the building that was to become Main and Six into a taproom and working brewery took more than creativity and an eye for design – it took extensive work and modifications. The quaint mid-century block building needed to be transformed into an inviting, yet unique public space, and be able to accommodate all the equipment required for a full-scale brewery.

We took design inspirations from Springfield, the historic neighborhood it resides. We collaborated with local artisans and companies to create our custom furniture designs and the unique pieces that make up its interior. And we paid particular attention to the lighting, coordinating its design with the furniture layout and the owner’s vision of the perfect upscale, taproom.

BMor Creative was honored to provide design services for Trinity Baptist Church's Sanctuary. This space was initially designed as a traditional church setting with pews and a palette of oak and burgundy. Consistent with the needs of their congregation and uses for the space, they decided to use a more flexible furniture layout and updated color schemes. This allows them to offer both formal and more casual church services and functions within the same room.

In 2014, when John Crispens asked us to take part in what was to become the restaurant and bar he’d always wanted – people thought he was crazy. Main Street Springfield was essentially void of commercial development, whatsoever. He and we thought – “Naysayers be damned.” This 5,000 square foot building was a gem and we made sure it was going to shine.

Dating back to the 1930s, the building needed complete restoration – so we rolled up our sleeves and got to work. It took three years, an enormous amount of work – not just physical and design. John applied for and received grants, tax credits, and even got the community involved with fundraisers and gatherings. And it all paid off with Crispy’s fantastic grand opening. Read more.
