Donor walls should be more than just a listing of names, they should also enhance the spaces they are in and encourage donors by making them want to be shown as an integral part of the"Art Work" that the Donor Wall becomes.
A significant Hebrew phrase may become an important element in synagogue design. The graceful lines and shapes of Hebrew calligraphy are often an inspiration for the sculpted form of other synagogue needs.
The menorah is an ancient Judaic symbol. Milstein has interpreted Menorahs in many sculpturally different ways integrating them into a variety of spaces. The "Temple Menorah" is described in the Bible. A Menorah is shown on the Arch of Titus in Rome.
