This image showcases an elegant example of contemporary architecture with clear influence from Islamic decorative motifs. The photograph captures tall vertical screen panels featuring geometric star-patterned ornaments (mashrabiya) that serve a dual purpose: decorative appeal and solar protection.
The white perforated panels create an exquisite interplay of light and shadow on the polished marble floor. Particularly impressive is how sunlight passing through the latticed openings projects ornamental patterns into the interior space, creating a dynamic light composition. These perforated screens simultaneously provide privacy and connection with the surrounding nature — trees and greenery are visible through them.
The architectural technique of using carved screens is an excellent solution for regulating natural lighting and creating a visually interesting façade. In private construction, similar elements can be used for verandas, terraces, or patios where partial shading and decorative space division are required. Modern materials allow for recreating such perforated panels from metal, composite materials, or even wood, adapting this traditional architectural element to a contemporary home.
