Jiroft Mosque
Islamic architecture is primarily based on philosophy. The philosophy of Islamic architecture could be categorized in two dimensions, external and internal. All the functional aspects of Islamic mosques have an internal and an external philosophy. We can also observe these philosophies in all the details and components of the building. The historical development of mosque architecture also reveals this supreme philosophy.
In this project the four cardinal directions have been used to organize spaces. Following the architecture of traditional Islamic mosques, the sequential spaces changes from a semi open space to an open space and eventually reaches the shabestan (the central closed space of the mosque).
In a traditional city, a mosque is not only a place of worship, but also works closely with the bazaar, schools, and other cultural hubs. The traditional architecture of these places are also closely related to each other.
According to the site investigation, it was concluded that there is a lack of social platforms around the campus. Therefore, it was decided to transform the mosque into a platform for social interactions. This idea also enhances the social role of the mosque around the campus.
The mass of the project was elevated from the ground to create a shaded platform with proper air circulation underneath the building. This platform is also connected to the Tomb of the Martyrs. Considering the climate of Jiroft, an outdoor social platform with pleasant environment could be highly beneficial for the students to conduct various group activities and improve the cultural level of the university.
The functional spaces of the mosque were formed around the Shabestan, including a religious library on the upper floor. This library plays an important role in improving the cultural relationship between the mosque and the university.
The shabestan consists of a 22*22 space with two entrances. The sacred atmosphere of shabestan was created by light penetration through the implemented glass pieces in between the brick blocks on the façade. Brick was used as the single façade material in order to remain pure and sacred.
The skylights of Shabestan provide indirect lighting to the space. These skylights are covered with copper glazed bricks with the names of God on them.
Considering the golden ratio principals, the volumetric organization of the project consists of a regular geometry with square divisions which organizes the whole project and functional spaces. All the spatial elements of the project where organized based on this geometry.
