New after old

This was some institute in the newer part of town. I liked how they modeled their contemporary wall on the traditional Saudi style that dominates old Diriyah.

Another image posted today of an old door:

I also like the nod to history in newer buildings. A lovely shot. V

Good shot of the seemingly endless patterns. The palms add a nice organic feel. V

I find those palmtrees very attractive and they produce a nice shadow.
