I did! Fantastic feature, got me super hooked last night and I went link hopping exploring more on the architecture forms of the West, Thanks to you. One style I found funny and fascinating is the "Novelty Architecture" or... Los Angeles's Programmatic Architecture! Did I say I like Oranges? Take a look, most quirky and bizarre I have ever seen! Lol. Fun! "Step" structure reminded of Burj Khalifa. It's design is derived from the shape of "Hymenocallis flower", a native flower of the Middle East region. As the flower's name suggests, the basic could be viewed as symbolic of the feminine virtue and the rise of the power of Middle Eastern women. The modular, Y-shaped structure with setbacks along each of its three wings provides stability and grounding for the structure as well as providing the building a better vista of the Arabian Gulf. The tower is modern reminiscent of onion domes, symbols of iconic Islamic architecture. #Marvelous_Engineering_From_Where_I_Live! How come you never looked up and wondered!! #Marvelous_Engineering_From_Where_I_Belong!
#Quirky #Funny #Fascinating #Other_Things_I_Enjoyed! Pink Dragon Tower! What more to ask? Wat Samphran (Thailand) is 17 stories high and 80 meters tall to honor the number of years Buddha lived! Nice!
How about a "Hydrogel" that can absorb more moisture, more faster too? Eight times better performance than currently available dehumidifiers such as silica gel, is suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications as a smart window sun blocker, wall / floor coating, as conductive ink in air conditioning systems and even as a AA battery! Cheap and easy to make, uses less energy to operate as well. Atmospheric humidity, an abundant source of water. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first attempt at harnessing ambient humidity as a sustainable resource for energy conservation and harvesting. Novel water-absorbing gel invented by NUS researchers harnesses air moisture for practical applications.
That totally tickled my vanity! Who wouldn't want a descriptor like that! The BonsAI is cute but I dunno how seriously I can take a plant speaking wholesome truths to me.
I'm just glad at least there will be some greens in the future and, not all machines, deep minds, dry days and dark worlds! It's hope! Lol.
