Surau Nusa Idaman Mosque

Information

Surau Nusa Idaman is a Muslim prayer hall for 200 people built entirely with public donations.
The challenge was to design a simple building that would fulfil the basic purpose of protecting the users from the elements but would simultaneously be a mini icon and a landmark that would be viewed with pride by the residents of this new neighbourhood.

Open- Space design of the mosque represents the seamless, Close relationship between light, wind, water and other natural element. This can be translated as a reminder to the faithful of the essential element that make up the universe, and which are to be celebrated and blessed throughout our lives,. It will also endeavour to bring man closer to the environment and eventually to his creator.

The green elements have been imparted into the design, with the prior consensus of the residents. It is also a way to educate and inform the public on sustainable architecture.

Despite many constraints and downturns faced throughout its construction, the Nusa Idaman has successfully turned into a remarkable edifice that has become a simple rudimentary structure, designed to express a modest, yet tastefully constructed modern mosque for the local community.
