Jews and Design :: Hannukah version

While we often joke at Surface about doing a Jewish issue (no Zaha or Karim...but plenty of Dror!), the most basic way to look at the secular nature of design influencing a non-secular lifestyle is religious imagery. And since the cross is pretty much canon and the tree gets all the glory anyway (and the Kwanzaa Kinara is, you know, a lot like a menorah), leave it to the Heebs to come up with pretty fancy holiday decor. So here is my round up of the season's best (and most clever) menorahs, in no particular order:



Holiday Skyline Menorah by Jonathan Adler


The Man-Orah by Josh Korwin and Alyssa Zukas



The Hannu-kit at Reddish



Sahar Batsry's Flame Menorah


Last Match Menorah by Kathleen Walsh




Cube Modern Menorah by Modern Tribe



Menorah Glass Candleholder by Frabel




Rivington - at Maxwell Silver
