Recently, a real masterpiece of modern architecture appeared in the Iranian city of Isfahan. Ali Karbaschi developed the original design of the building Gooyesh Linguistic Institutedecorating its facade … alphabet letters.
Let us recall that there have already been attempts to "cross" linguistics with architecture in history. Moreover, a similar idea was implemented by our compatriots, Lviv architects, who built a house on the wall of which you can see the largest crossword puzzle in the world. But the Iranians have decided, apparently. That the more letters there are, the better, because their brainchild is replete with letters. Thanks to the efforts of Ali Karbashi, an ordinary high-rise building has become a real symbol of philology, that is, "love".
According to the principle of the arrangement of letters in a crossword puzzle, Ali Karyashi "lined" the walls of the building and enclosed each letter in separate "cells". The lighting comes on at night, making the original building even more impressive. Finding a pattern in the arrangement of letters is practically useless: they do not add up to words, however, some follow in alphabetical order.
The structure consists of lattice rectangular panels (4 letters wide, 6 high). By the way, the architect thought through everything to the smallest detail and gave a "linguistic" charm even to the gate, so that this building element did not violate the harmonious design. It seems that such an unusual design of the Gooyesh Linguistic Institute will be an excellent motivation for students not to skip couples and devote their free time to learning languages.
