YouFine’s Church Project: Basilica of San Albino Columbarium

As a provider of artistic services and products, YouFine always strive to deliver the best quality to our clients. Recently, we had the privilege to work on a new project – the Basilica of San Albino Columbarium Project in New Mexico. Our task was to add sculptures and decorations to the columbarium, which would enhance its visual appeal and add a touch of serenity to the sacred space.

When the client first approached us, they had a simple request – to add some sculptures and decorations to their Columbarium. But as we started discussing the details, we knew we had a chance to create something truly extraordinary.

From Vague Ideas to Extraordinary Sculptures: Collaborating with the Client

At the beginning of the project, the client had only a vague idea of what they wanted. They mentioned the need for sculptures of Mary and Joseph, but the specific design and size were yet to be decided. After closely collaborating with the client, we understand their vision and preferences and then recommend appropriate sizes, marble materials, and designs. We started by presenting the client with a catalog of our works and discussing their design and size requirements. Based on their needs, we recommended the best materials and designs to create sculptures of Mary, Joseph, Jesus, Pieta, and an angel, all carved out of marble. After that, we set out to create five stunning sculptures and a beautiful fountain.

The Progress Updates: Keeping the Client Involved and Excited

We take pride in keeping our clients updated on the progress of their projects, and this was no exception. Throughout the production process, we maintained close communication with our client. We sent them weekly updates on the progress of each sculpture and the fountain,  keeping them involved and excited about the final product. Once the sculptures were complete, we sent the final images to the client for approval. They were thrilled with the result, and everyone in the church was equally impressed.

Transporting and Installing the Sculptures: Ensuring Perfection

Before transportation, our client had specific packaging requirements, and we tailored our packing approach to ensure that the sculptures and fountain arrived intact. Upon receiving the shipment, the client was highly satisfied and noted no damage. We’re thrilled to report that the sculptures arrived at their destination in perfect condition, much to the delight of the client and everyone at the Basilica of San Albino.

But our job didn’t end there. We had to make sure that the sculptures were installed perfectly and securely, with each one standing tall and proud on its pedestal. We worked closely with the client to determine the right size and position for each sculpture, and made sure that everything was installed to perfection. We confirmed the size of the sculpture bases with the client before shipping to ensure a seamless installation. The client was provided with installation drawings and videos for the fountain, and we even tested the fountain before shipping to guarantee it didn’t leak and produced the desired water flow. We also provided our client with installation instructions and training videos for the fountain, which facilitated an effortless installation process. The installation of the sculptures and fountain went smoothly, with the client expressing complete satisfaction. And the fountain was the pièce de résistance of the project, adding a sense of tranquility and serenity to the Columbarium.

A Spectacular Result: Adding Beauty and Grace to the Basilica of San Albino

The end result was nothing short of spectacular. The sculptures and fountain added a new dimension of beauty and grace to the Basilica of San Albino, drawing admiration and awe from all who saw them. Several people even requested our contact information to inquire about creating similar sculptures for their own homes or churches. The client was thrilled with the project’s outcome and was happy to recommend our services to anyone looking for exceptional marble sculptures and fountains. The client was delighted to share that their neighboring Catholic church was also inspired by their columbarium and asked him for our contact information, they want to create a similar project. In fact, we were thrilled to receive requests from others who wanted similar sculptures for their homes and churches.

We’re grateful for the opportunity to work on this project, and for the trust that the client placed in us. It was truly an honor to be a part of creating something so meaningful and beautiful.
