Affoue Kouame #12

The colonial house, being placed under the sun sign, must protect itself from heat, due to high humidity, while opening to the air which cools and purifies. The origin of the colonial house is the bungalow, low house built on a base surrounded by a gallery and wearing a high roof with four slopes, type of dwelling on the coasts of Bengal. I have visited the place and it still look amazing but not like before. I also think that people back in the day were very creatives with a little material.

The eiffel tower is a monument from Paris. I have been in Paris in 2009 and i can tell you it is a nice and beautiful country. This tower is really big and has seventy-two names of french scientists, engineers, and mathematicians engraved in their recognition of their contributions. when you are on the top of the tower you can see the city of paris. The most i have enjoyed was the food because it was really good. There is two restaurant and a buffet on the top of this building.

Goree Island. Beautiful, mysterious, a small paradise floating nonchalantly off Dakar. Yet ancient theater of the worst manifestations of man's inhumanity, the hub of slavery, a pillar of the triangular trade for centuries. Heritage and essential site of world history, Goree Island has that indefinable something that makes it unique, a touch of mystery that makes it memorable. When you go to this place, you can feel what was happened before. It represents many things at the same time for me.

At the top of what is called the golden triangle, home to many embassies and institutions, the Place de l’Etoile is a hub to commute to the western suburbs and La Defense. The neighborhood is, of course, home to the world renowned Champs Elysee a 2km long strip, referred to as the most beautiful Avenue in the world and famous for its luxury shopping and dining venues. The Avenue features brands like Louis Vuitton, Guerlain or Lancel and, no matter what time of the day or night, the flow of people (mainly tourists) is continuous. You can not go to Paris and miss this marvelous place. It is a great piece of art that this country has because it attract many people around the globe.

PLATEAU...LA  PYRAMIDE

The Pyramid is a high-rise building located in the Plateau in Abidjan. Its construction began in 1968 to be completed in 1973. He is one of the most famous buildings in the Abidjan agglomeration for its architecture and little trivial to be one of the first high-rise buildings constructed in the Plateau, at the time of the Ivorian miracle. It has the ground floor of several spaces for shops and trade. The first time i saw the pyramid it was like i was in a different world. The texture and the way people built it was really amazing. The actual picture of the pyramid is not really nice because people do not take care of that. This nice bulding is for tourism and you can find many things you need or want to know about africa

Growth Point, Point growth is a work of sculptor Lim Dong Lak which is part of the series poetic Totems. Founded in 1999, it represents a start emerging from a stainless steel globe kind of cyber seed. This achievement in any poetic melancholy tension between rigor and fantasy, skillfully balance the notions of artistic creation, technology and nature. Given this vital form of which the reflecting surface is animated according to the natural light and the activity of the environment, the viewer can indulge in a dreamy contemplation. I went To Paris in France back in 2009 after my high school diploma. So, I went to do shopping not far from the place and I have noticed a spectacular sculptor. It captivated my attention and after that I went home to learn more about that.

The sculpture is made of marble reconstituted on an iron frame, it was made in Bouake before being transported. His first name was "Atou" which is also an Akan word that corresponds to the fraternal embrace. As indicates in the top. this picture represents my culture and where I come from.
