>mud mosque
How was it built? I suppose the wood acts as re-bar and it the mud monolithic? How does it not melt in rain?
Austin Cooper
There's drainage in it
Carson Lopez
Africa falls short when it comes to scale and grandeur, though their buildings are very comfy, rivaling English country cottages.
Gavin Rodriguez
More correct to say Sub-Saharan Africa as you know, Ancient Egypt
Nicholas Clark
They always had a much smaller population so labor was always a problem
Jayden Torres
Justin Evans
That's not an ancient building, it's a zimbabwe style hotel or some shit

Modern architecture is incredibly advanced and a blessing. Modern architectural STYLE is boring because it emphasizes a utilitarian look that's intended to feel clean but instead feels sterile and dull. Of course no one hates the science of contemporary buildings - people just hate the art of contemporary buildings. The meme that making a structure beautiful is a waste of resources needs to die.
Samuel Parker
The clean style of modern or contemporary architecture has great potential, but it is hard to pull off correctly. Beauty can be found in simplicity

The absolute state!
This is at-least as ridiculous as the reports of phantom islands, prester john and the Patagonian giants

England in the 1300s with a population of 1.5 million built a cathedral taller than the pyramids - the tallest building in the world
Lincoln Reed
Oliver Clark
Adam Nelson
I genuinely do not get Le Corbusier. Some of his stuff is genuinely good like the Unité d'habitation, other things are just weird like the thing you posted or his plan to raze central Paris

Density wise also the stone building would be harder in the sahel due to the need to bring the required materials across the Saharan desert so mud was much more applicable
Carter Barnes
Liam Powell
Ayden James
Connor Reyes
I challenge thou to find a finer work of art
Michael Nelson
The mud is pretty hard and it doesn't rain very much/that heavily. They repair the structure every year.
Juan Martinez
Is this in Samarkand?
Dylan Morgan
nvm, its Khiva, I knew it was Bukhara, Khiva, or Samarkand
Benjamin Gomez
Its ugly and boring.
David Wood
2+2=3
Hey look i can say something incorrect too
Ryder Phillips
Why do African put spikes all over their buildings like that?
Benjamin Barnes
Decoration, a bit of support and scaffolding for annual repairs
Julian Brown
So you can climb it
Jose Turner
Christopher Gonzalez
Can you please stop posting African mudhuts, just because a fresh cow dung shines doesn't mean that it should be taken that way.
