As part of an international
competition, the Dubai Creek
Harbour Mosque calls for
an iconic design to be the
feature public building in the
new district. Due to the site
location facing the creek
harbour and the function
of the development as a
holly place, a radical design
approach was required
to bring both visitors and
worshippers to function in
complete harmony, without
affecting one another.

This increased accessibility
creates an oasis-like
effect that emphasizes the
notion of the mosque as a
communal space.
The roof area also serves
the functional purpose of
allowing more space for
people to pray during Friday
prayers or other high traffic
seasons such as the holy
month of Ramadan and the
two Eid’s.
The skin of the building
is made of see-through
concrete material that looks
opaque during the day time
and will light up at night
through interior light coming
through its engraved Islamic
pattern.
The Creek Harbour Mosque
will be a feature iconic
sculpture in Dubai that
would attract visitors and
worshippers from all around
the world.
