This mosque renovation reimagines the existing structure as a grounded yet striking symbol of Islamic identity and community. The design preserves the original footprint while expanding internal capacity to serve a growing congregation. Using breeze blocks finished with thick earth-toned clay plaster, the mosque reflects the natural palette of its local context. One entrance aligns with the Qibla, while the other responds to the site’s main access point, creating a harmonious blend of spiritual orientation and functional flow. Twin minarets and intricate Arabic calligraphy elevate the structure into a contemporary expression of heritage and faith.
