Iconography – Ecclesia Designers

Orthodox Iconography for Churches & Sacred Spaces

At Ecclesia Designers, we bring the Kingdom of Heaven to your walls. We specialize in traditional Orthodox iconography, offering custom-designed iconographic programs for churches, chapels, and sacred spaces. Rooted in the Byzantine tradition and guided by the teachings of the Orthodox Church, every icon we create is a visual theology — designed to educate, inspire, and sanctify.

Whether your church is in the early stages of building or seeking to complete a phased iconography plan, Ecclesia Designers offers a complete iconography solution that integrates faith, beauty, and precision.

Why Churches Choose Ecclesia Designers?

Ecclesia Designers understands that iconography is not decoration, but sacred mission. Every icon is designed according to Orthodox liturgical canons, telling the story of salvation and making visible the invisible. Our iconographers are trained in the authentic Byzantine school, bringing to life scenes from the Gospels, the lives of the saints, and the glory of the heavenly kingdom.
