The local studio imagines the structure to have a geometric build blending both elements of classical Islamic emblems together with modern design cues. It is in the city's residential Al-Masayel district with five square forms which are rotated and stacked -- this is then topped off by a [half dome shape](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/al-fanar) to round it out. The studio speaks about the design project stating "The Mamluki Lancet Mosque, Adlah Mohammed Abdulrahman AlBahar, is a tribute to the rich heritage of Islamic architecture while embracing contemporary design principles. It harmoniously integrates traditional elements with modern interpretations, offering a [spiritual sanctuary](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mahamudra-meditation-centre) that resonates with worshippers and the local community alike."
