ELEVATED PUBLIC PIAZZA
Linked by a series of grand landscaped terraces from the street, this elevated landscape
deck becomes like a public square where 3 distinct volumes housing the Main Prayer
block, Islamic Learning Centre and Administration block, sit. Correspondingly, it lends
itself as a spill out area for events and activities serving the three program functions, as
well as extended praying spaces during peak usage.
3 VOLUMES
At the urban scale, the massing strategy seeks to create more porosity and human
scale. The arabesque screen facades of the 3 blocks are articulated differently to
correspond to the different programmatic requirements and climatic responds. But
collectively, the blocks with the minaret exude a dignified and subliminal presence
while embracing the community spirit.
