The interviewee believes that the center of the mosque under the dome and chandelier best promotes spiritual sense of Tawhid. He feels that outdoor gardens, water fountains, and a nice temperature enhance kusyuk towards Allah in prayer. The best mosque atmosphere for promoting kusyuk includes colored glass, water sounds from fountains, and echoes of praying. He finds individual kusyuk is best in a congregation that is neither too large nor too small. The physical scale of a mosque can affect kusyuk, with a large scale inspiring awe - the Shah Alam Mosque being a local example of good scale. Ornamentation like chandeliers, colored glass, and light effects increase the holy atmosphere
The document discusses the concepts of sense of place and spirit of place. It explains that sense of place refers to an individual's experience and perception of a particular setting, while spirit of place refers to the distinctive atmosphere or essence of a place. It also discusses how sense of place can be developed through careful observation of places and appreciation of their unique qualities. Virtual realities pose challenges to conveying authentic sense of place, as they are not direct sensory experiences of real settings.
