Welcome to my entry for today's SMASh contest from "The Shadow Hunters Community"!

Modern architecture is often inspired by nature. It's no longer a recent trend, with many buildings, even dating back to the post-war period, which wanted to break with the austerity of the USSR's buildings, looking for inspiration in models that nature itself shows us.

The fluidity, the symmetry, the audacity of being located in a place that doesn't seem to be his preferred location, but which makes perfect sense, means that these structures are appreciated not only for their lightness and beauty, but always for their usefulness and apparent simplicity, which is not in fact what lies behind his projects.

Some of these structures are integrated into larger projects or buildings. This is the case with the exterior of one of the train stations on the Lisbon suburban line. These para-sois are located on the north-facing front and are approximately 5.5 to 6 meters high. The arrangement of the 4 of them makes the rhythm and shape of the shadows they cast on the ground bring a smile to anyone who passes by.

In my case, I was looking at the ground when I noticed the perfect undulating shape of the cut-outs, and I instinctively looked up to notice their presence. United by a base that completes their wave, between each of the hats! Just perfect and simple.

The bases, cylindrical in shape, are not perfectly regular. They have a widening at the base that supports the hat, which gives it a layout even more similar to what I think may have been its inspirational model!

What do you think of this type of architecture? Do you like to see it in your own cities, or in cities you've visited? Do you pay attention to these elements that bring a certain degree of joy and youthfulness and movement?

Thanks to @melinda010100 for promoting this contest!

I hope you enjoyed today's eyeshadows!

Cheers🍀
Bem vindos à minha entrada para o concurso do SMASh de hoje da comunidade "The Shadow Hunters"!

A arquitectura dos nossos tempos é muitas vezes inspirada na natureza. Já não é uma corrente recente, tendo já muitas edificações, mesmo datando depois do período do pós guerra, que quis romper com a austeridade das edificações da URSS, que procurou a inspiração em modelos que a própria natureza nos mostra.

A fluidez, a simetria, a audácia de estar localizada em não nos parecesse que fosse a sua localização preferencia, mas que faz todo o sentido, leva a que estas estruturas sejam apreciadas não somente pela sua leveza, beleza, mas sempre pela sua utilidade e aparente simplicidade, o que não é de facto o que está por trás dos seus projectos.

Algumas destas estruturas estão integradas em projectos ou edificações maiores. É o caso desta parte exterior de uma das estações de comboios da linha suburbana da região de Lisboa. Estes para-sois estão localizados na fronte virada a Norte, e têm aproximadamente a 5,5 a 6 metros de altura. A sua disposição, dos 4, faz com que o ritmo e a forma que as sombras que projectam no chão tragam um sorriso a quem por ali passa.

No meu caso, estava a olhar para o chão quando reparei na forma ondulante e perfeita dos recortes, e olhei instintivamente para cima para reparar na sua presença. Unidos por uma base que completa a sua onda, entre cada um dos chapéus! Simplesmente perfeito e simples.

As bases, de forma cilíndrica, não são perfeitamente regulares. Apresentam um alargamento na base que sustenta o chapéu, o que lhe confere um traçado ainda mais semelhante ao que eu acho que possa ter sido o seu modelo inspirador!

E vocês, o que acham deste tipo de arquitectura? Gostam de a ver nas vossas cidades, ou nas cidades que já visitaram? Estão atentos a estes elementos que confere um certo grau de alegria e jovialidade e movimento?

Obrigado à @melinda010100 para promover este concurso!

Espero que tenham gostado mas minhas sombras de hoje!

Bem Hajam🍀

The shape that the shadows create is perfect, sometimes seeing them in the city is very satisfying.

Wow this is a very nice shadow, keep it up
