12. Goal is to design buildings that are a step or two above regional norm: Functional - better use of space Safe - redundant, resist earthquakes and wind Cost-effective - better use of materials than typical buildings, while still being culturally appropriate and sustainable 1-2 buildings designed during a typical project Suppose one of you wants to build a tower. Will he not first sit down and estimate the cost to see if he has enough money to complete it? Luke 14:28 Building Design

13. Take time to understand the vision God has given the ministry Show how buildings, roads, infrastructure and recreation can best fit on the site Show how site can be developed over years Focus on Phase 1, later phases may change with the scope of a ministry All this I have in writing from the hand of the LORD upon me, and he gave me understanding in all the details of the plan.

25. Hope of the Nations Primary School Kigoma, Tanzania PROBLEM: A ministry that runs a primary school for a very poor town in Tanzania was operating out of a couple of small buildings incapable of holding more children as they continue to expand. SOLUTION: EMI designed a new primary school campus on a much larger site, with many more classrooms, housing for teachers, kitchen space, library, and administration offices. A cultural center that explores 12 different tribes of Tanzania was also designed at the request of the ministry to teach the children about their uniqueness as individuals but unity as a people. Case Study

26. Hope of the Nations Primary School Kigoma, Tanzania RESULTS: A new campus for the primary school allows the ministry to expand to up to 300 students as opposed to their current enrollment of 88. It also gives them a place to have their kids clubs, camps, and a weekly church service for the surrounding community. IMPACT: Harold and Coni Knepper, founders of Hope of the Nations, have expressed their deep appreciation, because now they can reach even more children in Tanzania and provide them with the best education in the area along with knowledge of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
