TraMod Architecture: Light of Allah by Ibrahim Ma
The importance of light in Islamic thoughts and philosophy causes architects and designers to pay attention to this important factor in their projects
Light of Allah is the name of a special mosque for female designed by Ibrahim Ma in Xingping, China. How to control and manage traditional and meanings of Islam and create a direct connection with space and time of today, is the main thing that may get user`s attention in this project. Special form, simple white colors and materials and traditional motives beside each other create a great interaction between meaning and appearance of past and today
How to control natural light and create a religious atmosphere inside and having a colorful mixture of colorful little windows from outside, is another reason to call this project a successful TraMod project
