With people wishing to have smaller and more easily managed houses after the Great War (1914 - 1918), architects began designing new ways of living in the 1920s and 1930s including flats and maisonettes.
This wonderfully stylised 1930s Streamline Moderne pair of maisonettes (two houses joined by a shared central wall), is a perfect example of this new way of living during the Interwar period.
The maisonette in this photograph, which is only one of the two, shows round porthole feature windows with rippled glass, stuccoed brick walls with speed line detailing, a natutical porch lamp, a rounded porch and rounded front steps. This is totally different to its pair, which has the honeyed clinker brick walls exposed with horizontal bars of brown bricks and geometric patterns in concrete between the streamlined windows.
This way, even though the maisonettes were joined, the owners did not have to sacrifice their individuality!

See how the oriel windows have sheet metal panels with embossed images of torches and festoons.
The frieze of brickwork beneath the cornice displays a "diaper pattern," ugh. Everybody should have stopped using "diaper" in decoration contexts as soon as the word acquired its associations with poop and pee. Shame on English speakers, for having allowed a "diaper" homonymy to develop.
I happily truncate steeples anytime I can.
I think some kind of sculptural metal ornament ought to be hung upon the plain expanse of bricks at the center of the building.
I see you admiring that Honda Accord from model years 1997-2000. Its color is "Heather Mist Metallic."

Colorful diamond shapes embroidered on taupe linen make a colorful statement.
I embroidered rows of colorful diamond shapes on linen, and mounted the embroidery on a brass circle to give the pendant weight so it would hand nicely from a chain. I backed the embroidery with soft purple ultra suede, and created a beaded bezel around the embroidery to frame the pendant using tiny metallic bronze seed beads. The pendant hangs from a brass chain with teal beaded accents at the ends. The chain is threaded through an ultra suede loop on the back of the pendant and the closure is a brass lobster claw clasp.
Dimensions: The pendant is 1.625 inches in diameter. The chain measures 18 inches overall, including the clasp.
Hand formed brass ovals have been embellished with a geometric beaded pattern. I then added a faceted picasso bead in the middle for a pop of shine and color.

Converting this image to black and white helped emphasize the building's dramatic curves and geometric patterns. The upward perspective and tight cropping create a sense of power and momentum in the architectural composition.
The Westhafen Tower is a striking modern skyscraper located in Frankfurt, Germany.
Completed in 2004, it stands 109.8 meters tall with 30 floors. Its most iconic feature is the cylindrical design, covered with a green-tinted, diamond-shaped glass facade, often referred to as "the Geripptes" for its resemblance to a traditional Frankfurt apple wine glass.
Positioned near the Main River, the tower is primarily used for office spaces and is a prominent part of the city's skyline, blending contemporary architecture with its vibrant surroundings.
O Claustro Pequeno, núcleo mais antigo do Convento da Madre de Deus, atual Museu Nacional do Azulejo, em Lisboa, exibe uma rica combinação de estilos arquitetónicos, do gótico tardio ao Renascimento. Fundado em 1509 pela Rainha D. Leonor, o claustro apresenta paredes revestidas a azulejos, destacando-se o padrão geométrico "ponta de diamante", em relevo, característico da azulejaria maneirista dos finais do século XVI, com influências sevilhanas e produção em Lisboa. Integra ainda um lavabo ou fonte em pedra, elemento comum nos claustros conventuais. Ao longo dos séculos, o complexo sofreu alterações, nomeadamente sob o reinado de D. João III e após o terramoto de 1755, acumulando traços manuelinos e barrocos. O piso superior apresenta uma galeria de arcadas em pedra calcária, assentes em colunas com capitéis coríntios, com painéis de azulejos hispano-mouriscos em padrão geométrico azul e amarelo. O espaço serve como um testemunho vivo da evolução da azulejaria em Portugal.
The Small Cloister, the oldest part of the Madre de Deus Convent, now the National Tile Museum in Lisbon, displays a rich combination of architectural styles, from late Gothic to Renaissance. Founded in 1509 by Queen Leonor, the cloister has walls covered with tiles, featuring the geometric “diamond point” pattern in relief, characteristic of Mannerist tile work from the late 16th century, with Sevillian influences and production in Lisbon. It also includes a stone washbasin or fountain, a common feature in convent cloisters. Over the centuries, the complex underwent changes, particularly during the reign of King João III and after the 1755 earthquake, accumulating Manueline and Baroque features. The upper floor features a gallery of limestone arcades, resting on columns with Corinthian capitals, with panels of Hispano-Moorish tiles in a blue and yellow geometric pattern. The space serves as a living testimony to the evolution of tile work in Portugal.

Starting with lightly hammered sterling hoops, I added a beaded pattern around the edge using tiny seed beads and nymo thread. I chose a muted palette of earthy tones.
This beautiful, stylised, Art Nouveau stained glass of a geometric pattern features in a window in a bakery shop front along the busy shopping precinct of Glenhuntly Road in the Melbourne suburb of Elsternwick.
This black and white photo showcases a modern building in Panama during nighttime. The clear geometric lines and patterns of the building stand out against the dark backdrop. The layered glass structures are highlighted, creating a sense of depth. The overall composition reflects the simplicity and functionality of contemporary architecture in an urban setting.

Here is a link to a photo that will tell you what this is. You are actually looking at the "inside" or "underside" of it. And I only used the purple ones. =)

Geometric pattern of the famous glazed bricks friezes found in the apadana (Darius the Great's palace) in Susa (Shush) by french archeologist Marcel Dieulafoy and brought in Paris. Such polychromic friezes used to decorate the walls of the Achaemenian king's palaces in their capitales of Shush, Ecbatan, and Persepolis.
