Archnet

Divinity

In Islamic architecture lighting is used to illuminate, decorate, and to evoke the divine light (النور)

Dar al-Islam, designed by Hassan Fathy, maximizes natural light while naturally moderating temperatures

Daylight enters through circular roof openings to create a pattern on the floor "enhancing spirituality through light."
