PANEL 2: DESIGN The Social and Spatial Role of the Mosque in the Urbanised West
Chaired by Noha Nasser, Acting Director, Urban Renaissance Institute, University of Greenwich
- Alen Jasarevic (Jasaveric Architekten): The Penzberg Islamic Forum (20 mins)
Due to issues beyond our control, Jasarevic participated via pre-recorded video
- Ergün Erkoçu (Concept 0031) and Cihan Bugdaci (Gentlemen A.R.T): The Poldermosque - A Pluricultural Reality (20 mins)
At this time the world is changing and ways of looking at things are
established through different perspectives; our focus is on three main
elements - pluriculturality, interdisciplinary approaches, and informal
vs. formal uses. The pluriform-cultural/pluricultural compilation of
the community is no longer deniable and therefore an important factor
to take into account when talking about or creating for the community.
Followed by audience questions
