_GOSB Mosque

Information

“Creating a metaphor of infinity with the wide dome with one opening placed on a square
base” This was one of mimar Sinan’s methods and architectural goals, and this method has affected the design of the mosque. The design of the mosque is a single huge dome over a basic square base the as in the quote.

The dome rising from the stone dock as a factory’s chimney, as an aim to link the mosque with the industry due to the location of the mosque, where is it on one of the industrial city’s entry. Despite the bold and eye-catching design of the façade, the interior design was simple as an aim to give the worshipers a peaceful and comfortable atmosphere while worshipping.

The mosque has one minaret and the height of it is 41.35 m. The dome’s diameter is 28,10 m while the height is 23 m.

The goal of the mosque is not only a spiritual purpose it is also designed to be a place to gather, share information and individual social awareness. The mosque is facilitated with the basic mosque facilities restrooms, bathing cubicles, shoes racks, pulpit, and advanced facilities sanctuary, library, gravel docks in the open area, and coffin rest.
