[edit] Early life

He was born in Elazığ, Turkey in 1927. He completed his elementary and secondary education in the same city. Then he left for Istanbul for a university degree and graduated from the Faculty of Architecture of Istanbul Technical University in 1949. Later in 1952, he completed his post-graduate studies at the Institute of Urbanism and Urban Development of Sorbonne University in Paris, France.

[edit] Career

Along with numerous national award winning projects in Turkey, Dalokay has been awarded internationally for the Islamic Development Bank (1981) in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, and perhaps his most famous project, the Faisal Masjid (1969) in Islamabad, Pakistan.

His design for the Kocatepe Mosque in the Turkish capital, Ankara is selected in the architectural competition, but could not be applied, as a result of controversial criticism. Later modified design is used for the Faisal Masjid in Islamabad.
