The art of living : residential architecture in the Islamic world



This exhibition comprises of 211 colour photographs and 7 enlargements of islamic resedential architecture, both historic and contemporary. The exhibition is further supplemented by 9 posters of architectural drawings (divided into the architectural styles of the different regions) and architectural ornaments: doors, doorknockers, windows, bas-reliefs and ceramic tiles.

The exhibition also provides an insight into the expansion and development of the Islamic world from the first Muslim empire of the Ummayads in the Arabian peninsula; all the way to the Far East – Malaysia, Indonesia and the southern islands of the Philippines. However, the major motive of interest in this exhibition resides in the iconography of Islamic architecture.
