St. George Orthodox Church, Abu Dhabi

St. George Orthodox Church in Abu Dhabi is a harmonious blend of ancient traditions and modern craftsmanship, designed by Design Concepts. The church’s interiors feature intricate cement carvings, hand-painted icons, and solid African teak wood, selected for its beauty and acoustic properties. A serene atmosphere is created through concealed lighting and a tiered false ceiling, while handcrafted wooden entry doors symbolize spiritual welcome. The exterior combines Orthodox iconography with urban elegance, making it a landmark in the cityscape. This architectural marvel stands as a testament to faith, culture, and sustainable design, creating a lasting space for worship and reflection.
