Over the last fifty years, Kol Emeth has evolved into a powerful and dynamic voice in the Jewish community. And with the existing site in the heart of Silicon Valley set to be transformed, they required help visualizing the new living environment while also expressing Kol Emeth’s unique identity. The Sanctuary, Courtyard and Social Hall/Gathering Space were designed to the same proportions as the Tabernacle. Twelve great pillars support the Canopy, a reference to the twelve tribes of Israel, the tallit and the wedding chuppah. These uplifting indoor and outdoor spaces were designed to embrace the entire community and its very soul.
