Unusual corner house

This was a very interesting house we ran into in the residential area next to the King Abdullah Financial District. Both the roof and the gates were pretty unusual.

I’m going back to my Riyadh Architecture gallery along with a residential one as well uploading a few more pictures of the King Abdullah Financial District, at least mix it up a bit ;-).

All these buildings must be getting pretty boring, and I apologize, but it's still all I can do at the moment, unfortunately (although I do love architecture). There is a huge culture festival coming up in February – like the event of the year -- and I'm hoping I can again walk on my own two feet by then because there will be a lot of photo ops, and photography isn't quite as restricted there (at least it wasn't two years ago).

Traditional but new, posted earlier:
