"Al Sajada" was qualified into the 10 finalists of the competition "Bab Al Bahrain" for a new public space in Manama, Bahrain. The proposed design aims to re-qualify the notion of public space in the context of Bahrain. Bahraini society is undergoing rapid changes but the frenetic development of the urban skyline doesn't necessarily reflect the actual needs of the people. Being interiorized and privatized the public spaces are not stimulating communication between the people and provoke a modification of behavior that has the effect of increasing the social division.
"Al Sajada" makes reference to the traditional Islamic gathering space: The mosque. No matter the size of the building, the proportion of the praying hall always contains the fundamental measurement that relates to the human body and makes the majesty never oppressing. The spatial organization allows freedom of appropriation. Being opened day and night, mosques are shelters for people who come to pray, read, chat or taking a nap away from the heat. They are at the same time meeting place and extension of the domestic spaces.
