Masjid Design for factory workers in the city of Faisalabad, Pakistan, MAK Architects, designed an octagonal mosque. The mosque is specifically designed to cater to the spiritual needs of the factory workers who toil in the factories day in day out.

The octagonal shaped mosque is a modern take on traditional Islamic architecture. The octagonal shape symbolizes the eight-fold path in Islam and its spiritual significance, and this translates to a peaceful environment for the factory workers that they can visit to pray, reflect, and rejuvenate their souls.
