Good evening to all HIVE friends in this community, I will share a little bit of the architectural design of the Nurul Islam Mosque in Denai District, North Sumatra Province. This mosque, which has striking colors, is like a magnet in itself. The location of the mosque at the crossroads makes it easy for everyone to meet here and find public transportation. Anyone, any religion or ethnicity can gather here as long as they maintain their polite behavior.
First we will see from the front of the mosque not only because of its striking color but also because in an area as small as this I see this building has some complexity when making it and when I see the overall design is very detailed and very smooth workmanship. If I see the design on the upper pillars that are made in relief shaped like the shape above, they must be really expert otherwise the desired motif will not be so that the shape is like a carving and wallpaper. Then it becomes perfect with the gradation of the chosen color, the curves of the dome and the entrance and the small supporting pillars become a very sweet complement to look at and seem to perfect the existing design and the complexity made. But ignore the cables that cross above it, my friend.
And walking a little to the side, there are no longer any large main pillars, all of these pillars are already standard sizes, namely 40 x 40 and these pillars have been purchased so that they are like this, only the polishing and painting parts are adjusted to the existing building. And the design of the upper part of the curved wall of the dome and the frame of the outer edge of the upper dome is designed in the shape of a flower that I know already has a mold, it only needs to be adjusted to the technique of the builder. And the stairs on the side function to clean the roof every Sunday and I happened to be at this mosque right on Sunday morning.
Entering the mosque I immediately saw a cupboard that had many awards for creativity competitions held in the area. I read this information from the trophy awards they received. And the floor of the inner mosque was given white ceramics then covered with green ambal. The inner walls of the mosque were also given similar ceramics but only as high as the award cupboard, this was intended to make the appearance of this mosque look more luxurious.
If most mosques today already use PVC ceilings I do not see a mosque that has a blue dome on the inside like the color of the sky and surrounded by Arabic accents on the upper side of this dome. not using ceilings but using cement gutters so that the zinc used is invisible. This use is very effective and much stronger than using PVC but aesthetically it is outdated. Even so, the level of complexity of the design of the outside of the mosque is a special attraction for builders who want to find inspiration. Because even though we see it as ordinary, I know this has a high level of complexity and takes a lot of time so that the costs incurred will definitely increase much more than if we do not give a touch of relief to the building.
These mosque buildings are very numerous in this area up to Aceh and there are very few urban buildings in them. In the future I will show you again how the other mosques are. Greetings from Tomi diwirja, Indonesia
I think there is a lot of complexity from design to construction of a mosque. I like all the elements of it compose it, that's why they are works of art like this one you show us. Greetings @tomidiwirja
Thank you @sorprendente, I am very happy that you like my post. Hopefully in the future I can share other better architectures. Have a nice day
Despite being a small sacred complex, this beautiful mosque shines with its elaborate architectural splendor as shown in its meticulous and colorful details. It also resembles an Islamic palace when viewed from a distance. Splendid landmark @tomidiwirja! ☺️
Thank you @archmoments, I see that this mosque is indeed very striking in terms of color. It is true what you said, this mosque is like an Islamic palace. I often pass in front of this mosque and always glance at this mosque because of its striking color. Hopefully this mosque will continue to be maintained in its beauty and continue to be well-maintained.
Most of the mosques I've encountered around the world are typically covered in light surfaces or white materials. And it's amazing to see that Indonesian mosques embody colorful designs with plenty of ornamental details. Does your Islamic culture allow you to use all types of colors for its sacred buildings @tomidiwirja?
as far as I know there is no problem in choosing the color in making a mosque. it doesn't have to be white or the usual colors that are widely used for mosques. but sometimes each province can have different designs and colors. that's what I think. thank you @storiesoferne for visiting my post.

The mosque has a beautiful facade, I like the color combination and the finishes of the domes.
Greetings!
every time I pass the road in front of this mosque I always glance at it because it is beautiful to look at. this is the first time I have had the chance to take a picture of this mosque. thank you for your comment.
The color of the mosque is unique. It is my first time looking the brick red as the mosque's dominant color.
Yes sis, they are very clever in choosing colors. So I was inspired to paint the house like that too.😊
Wah, I am also curios with your home with that color. It will be a home in the fairytale.
😆😆😆
Yes, just wait, when I have painted my house that color, I will post it again.
