A renovation rooted in reverence and renewal, the Wilshire Boulevard Temple Resnick Family Campus balances Mid-Century Modern design with modern utility. Working with Gruen Associates, Urban Accessories provided custom Sanskrit-pattern tree grates tailored specifically for this sacred space. Each cast iron grate—finished with a proprietary rust conditioner—sits seamlessly within corten steel edging, creating a visual rhythm that complements the campus’s architecture and landscape.

This installation is a testament to timeless craftsmanship. The pairing of cast iron and corten offers a refined but grounded aesthetic, helping define ceremonial pathways and peaceful garden areas without distracting from their spiritual intent. Gruen’s thoughtful layout ensured these elements became part of the broader narrative—one that honors the past while meeting the community’s present and future needs.

Let’s talk about what’s possible when heritage and material integrity work hand in hand.
