CJC Architects was honored to design the new Council House for the United Keetoowah Band of Cherokee Indians in Tahlequah, Oklahoma. Serving as the central hub for the Tribe’s governance, this facility provides a dignified and functional setting for council meetings, administrative operations, and community engagement.
The design reflects the UKB’s heritage and cultural identity while incorporating modern building systems to ensure long-term performance and efficiency. The layout features a dedicated council chamber, flexible meeting spaces, and secure offices for tribal leadership and staff.
Accessibility, life safety, and technology integration were key priorities, creating a facility that is welcoming, functional, and future-ready. This new Council House stands as a symbol of unity and progress for the UKB Tribe, providing a space where leadership can continue to guide and serve its members for generations to come.
