Location: shiraz , Fars, Provine, Iran
The client asked us to design a mosque with the maximum capacity for prayers in the
area of the old prayer hall at the site, being surrounded by 70-year-old trees and the
hospital’s main streets. The primary idea was formed on four challenges; the maximum
capacity for prayers, preserving the trees, proximity to the main axis of the pavement
and the old prayer hall. In the first step, considering the project conditions, the pattern
of a mosque without court was chosen where the whole area between the trees was
regarded as the designing area. Considering the old ness of the prayer hall as part of the
site’s history, its plot plan formed the plan of the new mosque’s dome.
