Beth Menachem Chabad

The Beth Menachem Chabad is a religious temple designed to compliment the surrounding residential neighborhood in style, scale and materials.  map-lab collaborated closely with the team to address all design approaches and concerns, which were controlled by the specific necessity of spaces within this building.  The sanctuary space will serve various religious events and functions and can be divided into two spaces with the new mechanical dividing wall. The lower level of the building features a religious mikvah for men and women, with rich lighting, finishes and materials.
