    the concept of recca as an icon for the jami mosque is one of the local culture, the purpose of this building is to become a cultural, religious, and social landmark in the city of Makassar.
    By maximizing open space, there is a plaza in the middle for the expansion of the prayer area, as well as a roof garden as a center for public activities.
    the form of the plaza is a process of subtraction from songkok recca, instead of making the shape of the recca which is a symbol of war as a place of worship, we take the philosophy as the cultural wealth of Makassar from the walasuji motif as the facade.
