ANALYSIS OF FUNCTIONAL DESIGN IN EGYPT’S CONTEMPORARY MOSQUES: TRADITION, INNOVATION AND ENVIRONMENTAL RESILIENCE

Öz

This study investigates the architectural evolution of mosques, highlighting their transformation from purely liturgical spaces to community centers that embody regional identities across the Islamic world. The research examines the impact of socioeconomic transformations, from the Industrial Revolution to Modernism and Postmodernism, on mosque architecture, establishing a nuanced interplay with heritage continuity in addition to contextual adaptation. It specifically addresses those difficulties encountered by modern Egyptian mosque architecture via maintaining traditional elements from the Prophet’s Medina prototype while responding to current environmental, technological, and societal demands. Utilizing a mixed-methods research framework that includes qualitative spatial analysis, field-based case studies, and environmental performance assessments, all informed by a critical review, the study integrates insights from semi-structured interviews with architects and congregants to enhance understanding of community engagement and the experiences of mosque users. Findings suggest that a performance-oriented design approach, rooted in cultural continuity yet adaptable to local needs, can effectively reconcile the tensions between historic architectural typologies and modern imperatives. The paper concludes with evidence-based design guidelines tailored to Egypt’s unique context, advocating for solutions that harmonize aesthetic heritage with sustainability, thermal comfort, and inclusivity. By situating these findings within broader discourses on Islamic architectural innovation, this research contributes to interdisciplinary dialogues on culturally grounded design in an era of accelerated urban and climatic change.
