Text description provided by the architects. KOS Mosque is a renovation project of one of the typical mosque projects in the Konya Organized Industrial Zone, which is not only considered a religious building but also considered an intervention in a place with structural and fictional deficiencies. This project is a new proposal on how to re-design existing mosques, whose number is approaching 85,000 in Turkey and increasing daily, instead of demolishing and rebuilding them. The data from existing buildings has always been used as a guide in the design process, and the main goal was to provide harmony between the existing building and additional volumes.
