your rabbi and Gabbai!

Aron Kodesh Design touches in so many different nuances.
To help you on the way, here is a list of the top seven factors you should consider throughout the process:

1. Get Inspired:

Start with gathering images of Synagogue interior, Aron Kodesh pieces you liked, textures, and materials. Group everything into a folder to keep a clear and coherent vision in one space.

2. Explore the laws of building an Aron Kodesh

Before starting the planning process, be aware of the halachic definitions in order to avoid costly mistakes. Here are some basic laws that apply to the building and structure of an Aron Kodesh:

-The Aron Kodesh should be placed in the synagogue's wall which is facing Jerusalem.

-It is permitted to install an alarm device inside an Aron Kodesh, which activates a loud siren sound in case of burglary, since it was intended to protect the Torah scrolls.

3. Drew a general sketch of the Aron Kodesh according to all requirements
