In this rare view of six projects, award-winning architect and artist Kenneth Treister expresses the importance of uniting architecture and art to create sacred spaces.

There is also a compelling Foreword by the world-renowned scholar and author Rabbi Yitz Greenberg. This book includes: Temple Israel’s award wining Gumenick Chapel; the restoration of Temple Emanu-El; the hand-carved murals at Beth David Congregation: the Synagogue at Miami’s Jewish Home; the University of Florida’s Judaica Suite at the Smathers Libraries; and his most important work, Miami Beach’s Holocaust Memorial.
