They look modern, but then look at the details. The one in the middle has little tan arched mihrabs, one stacked on the other. The left-hand one has corner balconies rising up inside a tall, narrow Islamic arch. On the right, look at that detail of the multiple blind arches at the top, there for no reason except that the architect just couldn’t resist. I imagine Western architects do this all the time, add little decorative elements like they were trimming a Christmas tree, but it seems so much clearer for me when looking at these. What are they going to do with the top of the big one rising up behind?
