Eielson Chapel

This facility was designed as a neutral yet reverent space for all religious denominations, providing a spiritual refuge for military personnel and their families. The building’s orientation maximizes natural light, even during the long Arctic winters, with large clerestory windows and views of a meditation garden.

The main worship area is framed by curved walls symbolizing protection, while the central sanctuary offers flexibility for various services. The design thoughtfully integrates spaces for worship, administration, and fellowship, ensuring it meets the diverse needs of the base community.
