Haj House Complex in Lucknow, United States

November 20, 2010 Category: Public Buildings, Religion

Haj House Complex that located in Lucknow, United States, was designed by AGi architects. The concept of the Haj House Complex in Lucknow attempts to connect the stems of some of the main features in Islamic traditional architecture.

As well as AGi’s take on traditional Persian techniques of light and shade they have also included some of the familiar landscaping features surrounding the Taj Mahal and bring them into the design.

The design is not only one which caters to those coming to study, but one that is open and accessible to the general public, providing cultural and leisure amenities, administrative towers and accommodation, as well as an educational building open to anyone interested in the teachings of Islam.
All in all the building embodies aspects of Islamic culture and becomes a building which is composed of a well endowed palette of colours and play on light and shade.
