OCT Chaohu Natural and Cultural Centre is located at the foot of the mountain between the natural mountains and the city, which stretches for tens of kilometres from northeast to southwest on the north side of Chaohu city. This project could be regarded as a critical point of the local natural environment and urban domestic life. The purpose of architectural building is to demonstrate the indigenous cultural heritage on the one hand, and seem to stand on the fence for the future domestic entertainment life in city on the other hand… #chaohu #culturalcenter #архитектура www.amazingarchitecture.com ✔ A collection of the best contemporary architecture to inspire you. #design #architecture #amazingarchitecture #architect #arquitectura #luxury #realestate #life #cute #architettura #interiordesign #photooftheday #love #travel #construction #furniture #instagood #fashion #beautiful #archilovers #home #house ‎#amazing #picoftheday #architecturephotography ‎#معماری (at China) https://www.instagram.com/p/CoOfvZisFoz/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

544 East Frederick Avenue was built in 1890 for John J. Owen, a contractor/builder. Like its neighbor at 580 East Frederick (Warren House/Dunbar Hospital), it was built by the Vinton Company. Bertha Alena Hansbury was born in Detroit in 1888. Reportedly, she was born on the site of the Fox Theatre. Hansbury was the product of multi-ethnic parents, a White mother and Black father. After attending the city’s public schools, she attended the prestigious Detroit Conservatory of Music. She then studied music abroad in Germany. In 1925, Hansbury and her husband, William H. Phillips, purchased the former Owen home. Hansbury, an accomplished pianist, founded the Hansbury Music School, which catered to the needs of African American children in the area. At the same time, Hansbury also ran a boarding school inside the home called the Bertha Hansbury Little Folk's School. Unfortunately, the Hansbury School was short-lived and didn't survive the economic strife of the Great Depression. In the 1930s, the home was the site of the Household Guild, the first state-licensed employment agency for blacks in Detroit. In the 1970s, Hilanius Phillips, who was the city's first black head city planner (and the grandson of Bertha Hansbury), championed the establishment of the East Frederick Avenue Historic District, which included structures of great importance to the African American community in Detroit and to the development of the Cultural Center. Multiple attempts to convert the home into a museum have stalled. #Detroit #CulturalCenter #MidtownDetroit #QueenAnne #VictorianArchitecture #archi_ologie #oldhouselove #casasecasarios #houses_ofthe_world #beautifulhousesoldandnew #deserve2preserve #TheAmericanHome #houseportrait #BrickStory #RawDetroit #PureMichigan #PureMittigan #MotorCityShooters #PureDetroit313 #DepictTheD #VisitDetroit #Michiganders #ThisPlaceMatters #ThisPlaceMattersDetroit #MichiganPlacesMatter #SavingPlaces (at Cultural Center Historic District, Detroit) https://www.instagram.com/p/CpOpvtcD_Ev/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

My trip to France two years ago brought me to the architectural beauty of the Russian Orthodox Spiritual and Cultural Center. Positioned near the Eiffel Tower and the UNESCO World Heritage-listed site, modern buildings can be seamlessly integrated into a rich historical architectural legacy. Traditional church architecture was combined with modern artistic and religious complexes.

LIGHTHOUSE

Since its construction around 280 BC, the Lighthouse of Alexandria has been considered one of the most famous monuments in history. It is one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World along with the Pyramids of Giza. It is believed that the Greek architect Sostrate designed it on the small island of Pharos, connected to Alexandria by a bridge. Its octagonal tower rose on a square base, ending in a cylindrical peak. Although its exact dimensions are unknown, it is estimated that the tower was at least 105 meters high and its light was visible from 55 kilometers away, according to Jewish historian Flavius Josephus. Unfortunately, the lighthouse collapsed and disappeared during the Middle Ages, probably due to earthquakes. However, archaeologists believe they have discovered some of its remains in the waters near Pharos.

Meroe always resisted the onslaughts of the Greeks and Romans, while Alexandria peacefully welcomed all visitors. The city, founded by Alexander the Great, was a major port city situated at the mouth of the River Nile and offered access to Mediterranean trade and a safe anchorage on the island of Pharos. It quickly became a center of knowledge and culture, attracting scholars from various backgrounds such as Greeks, Egyptians and Jews. The Great Library, located in the Mouseĵon district, was founded to collect "all the books in the world", but was partially destroyed during the wars against Rome. Alexandria was home to great minds like Euclid, Archimedes and Ptolemy. The geographer Eratosthenes first measured the Earth in the city, and the first translation of the Old Testament from Hebrew into Greek was produced by hundreds of scholars in Alexandria. In the 1st century AD, the city was also where Christianity began to spread in Egypt. The city prospered until the 7th century AD, when it was conquered by the Persians and then by the Arabs. Although many of its monuments have sunk into damp soil and been devastated by natural disasters such as tidal waves, the modern city of Alexandria, with over 5 million inhabitants today, stands on top of the ruins of ancient Alexandria. However, the exact location of some of its most famous monuments, such as the tomb of the city's founder, has yet to be discovered.

Here's what we'll miss when CCP closes in 2023.

The Cultural Center of the Philippines, which has stood along Roxas Boulevard in Pasay City for 53 years to preserve and promote Filipino culture and arts, will close in January 2023 for a three-year renovation.

The CCP, designed by National Artist for Architecture, Leandro V. Locsin, houses three theaters, one audio-visual space with a changing exhibit lobby, hallways, and galleries. Great Filipino artists were honored with the names of each of these spaces.

The CCP Main Theater is named for Nicanor Abelardo, the father of Philippine Sonata. The Little Theater is named after Aurelio Tolentino, a Filipino playwright and revolutionary during Spanish and American colonization; the former Dream Theater, now the CCP Arthouse Cinema, is dedicated after National Artist for Film, Manuel Conde; and the Studio Theater is named after Huseng Batute, King of Balagtasan.

The Main Gallery is dedicated after Juan Luna, while the Small Gallery is named after Fernando Amorsolo. The Little Theater Lobby, which is also a changing exhibit space, is named after Carlos "Botong Francisco, a National Artist for Visual Arts.

Vicente Manansala, a National Artist for Visual Arts, Guillermo Tolentino, known for works such as Oblation and Andres Bonifacio Shrine, and Victorio Edades, the Father of Filipino Modern art, were also honored with hallway names.

As it is home to a variety of permanent works of art, many of which were created by National Artists, such as Vicente Manansala's Tribute to the Seven Arts, Arturo Luz's  Black and White Painting and Paper Clip, Napoleon Abueva's Hilojan and Dancers, and Cesar Legaspi's Triptych, CCP might be considered as a museum.

There is no entrance fee when you visit CCP to explore on your own. You can, however, make a reservation with a tour guide for a more instructional trip.

These are just a few examples of what we can see and learn inside the institution. So, before it closes, come see the artworks and support Filipino culture.

Charles W. Warren was a successful businessman in the city during the late 19th century - he was a real estate developer as well as a jeweler. Warren had a home built in an upper-class area east of Woodward. Built in 1892 by the Vinton Company, the home is a mix of the popular Queen Anne and Romanesque Revival styles. Following the first World War, a massive influx of black Americans seeking to escape the cruel realities of the south traveled north and west in search of a better life. This has come to be known as the "Great Migration". Detroit's African-American population soared to more than 30,000 in 1917. Unfortunately, segregation was almost as prevalent up north as in the south. Hospitals in Detroit often denied care to blacks. In 1918, 30 African-American physicians formed the Allied Medical Society. The following year, the AMS purchased the Warren House, converting it into the Dunbar Memorial Hospital, the first of its kind to serve Detroit's black citizens. The hospital also sponsored nurses training classes and internships for graduate students. Dunbar was named in honor of the great poet, Paul Laurence Dunbar, the first black poet in the United States to obtain national prominence. In 1928, the hospital relocated to a larger facility several blocks east and was renamed Parkside. Charles C. Diggs, Sr., who would later be elected Michigan's first African-American democratic state senator, purchased the home shortly after Dunbar moved out. Mr. Diggs was also a mortician. His famed House of Diggs funeral home began here before growing into what was said to be the state's largest funeral home at one time. #Detroit #CulturalCenter #MidtownDetroit #QueenAnne #RomanesqueRevival #VictorianArchitecture #archi_ologie #oldhouselove #casasecasarios #houses_ofthe_world #beautifulhouseoldandnew #deserve2preserve #TheAmericanHome #houseportrait #BrickStory #RawDetroit #PureMichigan #PureMittigan #MotorCityShooters #PureDetroit #PureDetroit313 #DepictTheD #VisitDetroit #Michiganders #ThisPlaceMatters #ThisPlaceMattersDetroit #MichiganPlacesMatter #SavingPlaces (at Dunbar Hospital) https://www.instagram.com/p/Co8JylcPavr/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
