CG has designed a mosque in Riyadh that draws on local architecture while incorporating traditional Islamic design aspects, including geometric patterns that symbolize the infinite.CG wanted the Mosque to be respectful of its surroundings while simultaneously standing out. Al Rajhe mosque was designed around the idea of a “calm oasis of contemplation” situated within a grove of trees and informed by the garden of paradise. Domes are significant in Islamic culture and symbolize heaven and earth, making them a common addition to sacral architecture.
