I hope they don't built the second place domed monstrosity.
I really like their modified approach to the traditional storytelling methods used in places of worship for centuries.
excuse me,which software did you use for designing this project?
this reminds me of pierre khoury's our lady of lebanon basilica in harissa, lebanon. beautiful lyrical work of concrete. very much in the vein of some of kenzo tange's work.
however, this looks more clunky and a rather less uninspired. the undifferentiated expanse of some concrete surfaces, the lyrical movement straddling what looks like the UN Headquarters tower block, and i think-judging from some of the perspectives- the angles between the spiralling concrete planes are a bit awkward..
on the other hand, i like that the minaret, for a change, is an element arising from the logic of the massing. though i dont know about the minaret design as it is. also, please remove the arabic writing....thats just nonsense.
not bad, but really should go through another design phase to further enrich and refine it. make it less straightforward/naive? what do you think of the proportions?
I think the proportions are rather crude. So is the form and massing, especially after seeing the last image "piano" section..! Lacking finesse.
IYes I agree. Proportio s made me uncomfortable with it. Though I feel it has potential, no? At least I feel I respect this proposal. And you are right that it lacks finesse but its not beyond a good design development. Or not?
aha, now i know that the architects are iranians. i really did feel that the approach came from someone more familiar with the islamic world.
A good proposal. However, the proportions are not elegant! Maybe too tall ? also can do away with the columns inside! just do Shell Concrete!
The parking does not work either!..too convoluted !
hmmm..overall ok but at the same time dissapointing !
