The Largest Structure Made of Clay
The Largest Structure Made of Clay
This mosque is located in the city of Djenne, Mali. 90 percent of the population of Mali are Muslims. The first mosque was built on this spot in the 13 th century, and modern, if that word is appropriate, the form it had already in 1907. Unfortunately, it can only visit the Muslims. This change was made in 1996, the year, after Vogue magazine arranged in the walls of the mosque with half-naked photo shoot models. The entire building is built of bricks svoebraznyh - banks, made of clay, manure and straw. The consequence of this is the fragility of such an architecture. Therefore, each year after the rainy season, everyone is busy restoring the walls of the mosque.

The Incredible Sculptures Made From Sticky Tape
The Incredible Sculptures Made From Sticky Tape
These works of art are sure to stick in your head - as they've been sculpted entirely out of adhesive tape.The amazing see-through models of a peacock, a galleon and hot air balloon are entries in a bizarre art competition.
They are made by sticking bits of tape together in a 'free-form' style or by wrapping them around objects which are then removed from the piece.
There are also models of a gun-toting arm emerging from a TV screen and a sweets vending machine.
The entries are typically made from between 30 and 50 rolls of tape and take days to complete.
Other materials, such as wire, cardboard and paint, can make up to ten per cent of the model if used to support or enhance it.
The models had to be made using Scotch packaging tape and the winning entry will receive £3,100 when judging takes place next month.
Keri Warren, from Scotch, said: 'We are excited by the amount of attention this competition has attracted.
'All entries are unique in their own way and I find the level of detail and creativity outstanding.
'Many of the entrants photograph their sculptures in settings that help to bring their pieces to life, which helps us all to relate them.
"The competition allows the entrants to develop and showcase their artistic talents with a medium that is outside the typical realm of artistry.'

Hours Cristal Watch
Hours Cristal Watch
The main idea of hours of Cristal is to design a custom minute and hour hands, which is shaped like a crystal. However, the beauty of this concept is a bit inconsistent with the practicality and readability. Therefore, in the center of the dial is also a LED display that shows the exact time and date. One press of a button on the right side of the clock - and the LED-display shows you the time, two clicks - and you'll see the date.Tuesday, February 15, 2011
