In collaboration with ibda design.
Pattern Making.
A revisit of traditional Arabesque elements and notions. We designed a pattern that also has 3 levels of depth that represents an abstraction of the three basic stances of the praying ritual.


Contemporary Architecture and Arabesque.
This mosque, designed by ibda design, has a distinctive architectural design language that has a fluid interplay between the building mass and elements of nature; such as wind, sound, light, and landscape.




Rows.
Why only create odd/even rows to delineate where worshipers should stand? We designed a pattern that worked in multiples of 3 shades of colour.

Verses.
Working with an Arabic calligrapher, Quranic verses were designed to animate the walls throughout the Mosque.
