This mosque is located near Al-Azhar school in Bekasi Summarecon residential complex and located on the edge of the highway. The mosque design concept is using the signature design of Urbane’s mosques that is cube form and without the dome. Cube form is a practical design decision so it can accommodate the pilgrims to the fullest.
Material compositions that used in this project is the key point of this mosque design. Urbane proposed the concept of using expose materials such as red bricks that are stacked like wood structure on the cantilever roof in Javanese house. This material composition gives the dynamic effect of a simple cube shape with its texture.
Mihrab surrounded landscape that facing the street was designed as small garden hills planted with trees to reduce noises from the street. Reflecting pool surrounding the mihrab was designed as a natural air cooler.
Due to some technical problems during the construction, the exploration of exposed bricks that was formerly used as structural element was changed to decorating bricks. The facade is decorated with calligraphy art using GRC material.
This 2 storey building plus a mezzanine can accommodate about 1,000 worshipers. The lower part used as a multipurpose room, first floor intended for men worshipers and women worshipers are given a special place in the mezannine floor.
Visitors who saw the building of the cube from the distance will know that this is a building from the mosque minaret with moon and star emblem. The Jemaah leading prayer room will pass through the crescent-shaped door.
