The Arch of Harmony
c. 1494 zc
Location: Yazd, Persia

A monumental entryway designed by Amir Qadir al-Rashid for a Zoroastrian fire temple. The arch is constructed from pale marble, carved into interlocking patterns that resemble living lacework. The design draws inspiration from the stalactite muqarnas of Persian mosques, but Amir carried the geometry further into fractal iterations, repeating forms that grow smaller and more intricate with every layer. Light falls across the surfaces in shifting patterns, suggesting infinite depth within finite stone.
