EVERYDAY ICONS - ABU DHABI
NO. 0084 - AHMED OMRAN 126 MOSQUE
A lovely little mosque discovered by chance when returning from another exploratory photoshoot! I love the expressive detailing and the use of sharp geometric shapes to define the various architectural elements.
If you look closely you can still make out the original square tiling used in various locations - it appears to have since been painted over but would have once been a blue colour.
Architect and completion date unknown.
