The design principles necessary to create functional and dynamic contemporary mosques can be hard to grasp for those unfamiliar with the Islamic faith. ''Design Criteria for Mosques and Islamic Centers'' provides an easy-to-use and practical set of guidelines for mosque design, illustrated with 300 line drawings.

The book shows how mosques fulfill multiple faith-based and social roles through their design; it provides a wide-ranging, basic understanding of Islamic liturgical conventions and secular functions to enable architects, designers, and community advocates to work with confidence.

''Design Criteria for Mosques and Islamic Centers'' is the first dedicated design guide for mosques and Islamic centers available.

• Features case studies from the USA, UK, and Europe
• Explains fundamental principles to make it easy to create viable design solutions for these exacting buildings that fulfi ll a range of social and religious roles.
