The natural white marble Church Catholic Ambo that is used as the raw material for this design has a very minimalist style. The entire marble ambo, with the exception of the side facing the congregation which has engravings of the four Gospels, is unadorned.
In creating the Ambo, functionality and practicality were taken into consideration when determining the height of the sloped sides. The height allows for easy access and usage by people of varying heights. Additionally, a hole is built into the Ambo to accommodate the insertion of a microphone for amplification during readings.
Ambos come in a wide variety of styles, but they all serve the same core purpose – providing a platform from which readers can proclaim the word of God to the gathered assembly. This particular Ambo has a simple yet elegant flowing design, allowing the pure white marble to take center stage. The clean lines and lack of ornamentation give it an airy, almost ethereal feel. Yet the sturdy stone construction also grounds it, lending an aura of stability and permanence.
When designing Catholic church ambos, there is always consideration given to accessibility and sight lines to ensure readers can be easily seen and heard. The slope and height are calibrated to make accessing the ambo straightforward while still elevating the readings to a place of prominence in the church. Though styles may differ, the core essence of the ambo remains the same – a special spot for the word of God to resound to the faithful.
