Islamic Art museum - winnie wong wei ni 1101745

Winnie Wong Wei Ni 1101745 Islamic art museum day ~

The things i found most interesting is the Islamic architecture around the world.Most of the architecture built based on their country style, for example, The Great Umayyad Mosque, their design is more to western design which located at the site of church St.John The Baptist. The arch they used in the architecture are mostly rounded arch instead of using pointed arch. This is what i found interesting, before it, i thought all the mosque is totally looks alike like what we can see in Malaysia. Another architecture i found it interesting is the Southeast Asia's architectures, they used the pyramid roof construction for their mosque. This is totally different from the others which always include few domes in their mosque. 

Besides the architecture, the element used in the architecture also interesting. The element of water serves as practical, symbolic as immutable force,fluid and fluctuating, static at the same time and decorative function.There are few more elements like caligraphy, light and etc.

There is another thing i found interesting is the Miniature Qurans. It is normally design for soldiers because it is in small size, the soldiers can bring it everywhere. The Qurans housed in attractive cases, works with art with great personal significance. It is so creative, with a magnifying glass some more.
