The competition Central Mosque of Pristina Competition has announced two second place prizes and no winner yet.

Organised by the Islamic Community of Kosovo, the competition seeks to create a place “where understanding, humanity, tolerance, respect and sincere love shall be cultivated.”

Slovenian firm SADAR+VUGA was one of the two teams awarded second prize with its  project which was inspired by the old Sultan Mehmet II Mosque in Pristina, which was a design prototype.

Main architectural characteristics as well as the impressive proportions of the old mosque, were studied and interpreted into a new development.

An eventual winner is set to be announced soon.
