As times pass, and cities grow, the needs of their citizens change.
The Goal
The goal was to transition to a place that reaches out to a new generation, a temple for the 21st Century. A dynamic and inclusive community center for the Jews of Mexico.
Our Challenge
The Rabbi question was this: How do we ensure the survival and strength of our community?
Our answer was there in the question: Community.
Solution
Context
In the 21st Century, community centers are a core component of urban development. With many global success stories, we have the opportunity to create the first in Mexico, in one of the most dynamic areas of the country.
Rather than building on the memory of the temple, it’s regeneration will ensure its relevance to future generations, building a sense of belonging to the new Bet-Itzkak, and that the new Bet-Yitzchak belongs to them.
