Small Synagogue, Northern New Jersey
-
Ok, last project for the day (week, month, year??),
We're completing construction documents for an addition to a synagogue we designed and had built several years ago. Takes the project from 8,000 square feet, to over 24,000 square feet with the bulk of the building underground (so we avoid the coverage problem on the site). Below ground is a social hall (doesn't need windows, and an education center (not primary education for this congregation as their kids all go to private educational programs). Element on the left was our first project, element on the right is the current addition.

Allen, I am really intrigued by the "yellow" band (and like it!)...is there a historical or religious significance beyond the visual? Interesting play of form, new to old, BTW.

Good morning Tom,
Thank you. The yellow band I think you're referring to is the horizonatal wood siding base. No religious significance. Added to keep the Dryvit off the ground and out of harm's way.
