Institute of Islamic Culture

The Institute of Islamic Culture sits inside a former police station, its facade marked by a modern, translucent screen featuring geometric patterns that diffuse light into the building. It occupies a space that once monitored the neighborhood during periods of intense social friction in the late twentieth century. Today, the facility hosts art exhibits, language classes, and a hammam, operating as a site for public exchange. Its interior walls house echoes of the heavy security presence that defined the building for decades.
