Art of the Pen was hired as an independent consultant to Professor Keith Critchlow and Marks Barfield Architects to advise and provide calligraphy designs for the New Cambridge Mosque. The Quranic verse 'Qul huwa Allahu ahad' is embedded in the brickwork that covers the entire mosque in Square Kufic.
