While visiting Rotterdam, I captured this image of the Delft Gate Building and the corner of the Central Station with my iPhone 16 Pro Max. I loved the city's designs and creative architecture...
The dinning Room with different cultural design
Anqawi Residence, Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, 2008
..........................................................
This group of pictures were taken for The Anqawi's Residence, in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia 2008
Dr. Sami Anqawi is a Saudi architect, an expert on the region’s Islamic architecture
The residence is one of the best residences I have ever seen that really shows culture values + creative architecture. It is such a phenomenal place, Mashallah
I had the opportunity to go over his place and take pictures (I am such a lucky photographer, alhamdaulah), mashalah, I was amazed by his phenomenal architectural touches. It includes Hijazi, Shame, Andalusi, and even Japanese styles mashallah
Honestly, I wish to be there again, again and again, as it really needs me to stay there for ages to take pictures as the Residence is full of stories that needed to be captured for every single corner.
I tried to take most of my pictures using Fish eye lens so it may show the whole lovely view
I hope you enjoy the other pictures

After a decent breakfast in McClay’s, we took a walking tour of the city. It was the ‘Auld Firm’ derby (Rangers Vs Celtic) at noon and so every bar, and many of the shops, had security doormen from about 9.
We wandered the Merchant City, the Necropolis, along the Clyde to the ‘ski-jumps’, the bridge to nowhere, stopping off for coffee at The Lighthouse , the Rennie-MacKintosh newspaper building now converted into a creative architecture and design centre.
Glasgow is architecturally eclectic and seems to have had many phases of development, each at odds with the previous. It’s scruffy. Our visit was a Saturday morning, but it had the feel of a place constantly waking up with a hangover.
All reasons why I liked it a lot!
The urban motorway is ridiculous. There is no thought in the city for any other form of travel than the motorcar. Huge space is given over to tarmac with upto 16 lanes of traffic carving right through the city centre, right through people’s living space. Away from the motorways, making progress on foot is difficult with priority always with the traffic and little pedestrian infrastructure.
Along the way we found a some fantastic mural and street art (there’s a ‘Street Art Trail’ for next time). It was interesting to see how well respected the work was with no graffiti or ‘modifications’, quite different to the way that it’s treated in Poland.
The picture above and the two below show work by Australian artist, SMUG. Since marvelling at these magnificent, photorealistic pieces in Glasgow, he has produced another in Leicester, my home town. More of that in a future post.
We collected the car minutes before the parking vouchers expired and after a quick tour of the Clydeside docks and SCC Hydro, headed south and were home 7 hours later.
On the way, Iain pointed out the transition from the North to the Midlands, the Cheshire/Staffordshire border, and the same sense of unease came over us both.
We turned off the motorway and stopped for fuel in Stoke, or Brexitland as we know it. We were greeted by a depressing vision of tanning salons and vaping shops, litter, fast food and intolerance. Given the beauty of previous days, our return to this mundane familiarity was jarring. Iain and I ran out of things to say to one another, both in the same funk.
Over the previous week, the radio had been a constant companion. During the trip, either live or on iPlayer, the serendipity of Nemone’s perfect electronic soundtrack as we drove along the west coast, or the seemingly constant references to Kenny, Jonny and the Fife scene had been a perfect accompaniment to the journey.
Back home after unpacking, the shipping forecast came on the radio, and I could now put a place to those familiar, exotic names…

The Gong
A bell says shallo to new life in Aarhus. The Gong is a tubular bell that is part of the art decorations and it has an arm, which new parents can activate from the maternity ward at the Aarhus University Hospital at the other end of town when a child is born.
The bell has been cast in bronze and is 25 feet long, 2.5 feet wide and weighs close to 3 tons, which makes it the largest of its kind in the world. The work of art is located almost as a centerpiece in Dokk1 hanging above the media ramp, the large inner stairway connecting level 1 and 2.
----------------------------
Der Gong
Det Gong läutet wenn ein neuer Bewohner in Aarhus geboren wird; er ist mit einem Klöppel versehen, den frisch gebackene Eltern von der Geburtsstation des Aarhuser Universitätskrankenhauses aus aktivieren können, wenn ihr Kind das Licht der Welt erblicht hat.
Das Kunstwerk "Gong" besteht aus einer Rohr-Glocke, die Teil der künstlerischen Ausgestaltung des Dokk1 ist. Die aus Bronze bestehende Glocke hat eine Länge von 7,5 m, einen Durchmesser von 80 cm und wiegt ca. 3 Tonnen. Damit ist sie die größte Glocke ihrer Art. Mit seiner Platzierung unmittelbar an der großen Treppe verbindet das Kunstwerk das Niveau 1 und 2 des Gebäudes und hat somit eine zentrale Position.

Artomatic For The People, 2017
“Hanging above his easel was a partly finished portrait of Pope John Paul II created for one of Cowan’s most treasured clients, the former first lady of the Philippines, Imelda Marcos.
Once lauded for building “welfare villages” and a multimillion-dollar cultural center, now ostracized for cronyism and excessive luxury (she famously spent $2,000 on gum at the San Francisco airport), Marcos first commissioned Cowan to paint her portrait in the early 1980s.
He waved away my question about her legacy of corruption.
“I found her to be one of the sweetest, most knowledgeable people. She would know what the short-term political outcome is gonna be, and the long-term one, and she built all these recreation centers for her people,” he said.
When I had planned this trip months earlier, and even as I packed on the afternoon of November 8, I had imagined that this indifference to fraud and graft would place the artist on the wrong side of history.
However, less than one hundred hours after the 2016 election, my assumption that virtue overcomes corruption seemed utterly naive.” ―Nicole Pasulka
