Text description provided by the architects. The mosque designed by MJU Engineering Consultancy for the Sharjah Driving Institute exemplifies a harmonious blend of contemporary architectural language with traditional Islamic motifs, reflecting both cultural significance and modern functionality. The design draws inspiration from the rich history of Islamic architecture, characterized by intricate geometric forms and the use of light. The façade features elaborate "mashrabiya" screens that filter sunlight, creating a dynamic interplay of light and shadow within the interior spaces. This not only enhances the spiritual ambiance but also promotes energy efficiency by reducing heat gain.
