Mosque Interiors (Masajeed) Sacred craft from monumental domes to hand-carved mihrabs
Mosque Architecture & Sacred Fit-Out
Documented sacred sanctuaries delivered across the UAE — soaring ornamental domes, hand-carved marble mihrabs, and Quranic calligraphic friezes.
RLI has decorated a group of mosques named after significant figures of the UAE and Islamic history, for the Crown Prince Court and private clients. The approach fuses Moroccan and Andalusian design: gypsum bringing intricate pattern to walls and ceilings, marble adding grandeur, glass admitting natural light for a serene atmosphere, brass and wood adding warmth, chandeliers casting soft light over carpeted floors, and decorative painting rooted in Islamic art and calligraphy. See the eight featured mosque records in projects/ and ~20 further mosques listed in timeline.md.
