the vents are beautiful, I consider them art. I love all these different types of details. The flat roof adobe houses you talked about are on every street with in the city limits. they were all built in the 1920's. they were a copy of homes in the western part of our country, made from adobe and they came from Mexico. half the west belonged to Mexico before we took it from them.
I love all the pretty tiles And the use of colour everywhere. Makes our cookie cutter homes, all the same boring shades of browns and terracotta reds. Look very dull indeed
Thank you for visiting the bike shed again after my hiatus... I always like to look upward in cities, the buildings are almost always more interesting that way.
They do it with style over there.

Some places look more flourish than building! But yes, they are needed..stark straight lines everywhere can be soul destroying
