Look at this house. There are different kind of windows, ornaments, shapes and trims. And I hear people saying time by time, that those art nouveau buildings are SO fascinating. So why don't they - architects, create something similar with modern taste? We all know, history repeats itself - we get remixed good old melodies, old fashion comes back in different colours and accessories, and even this vehicle - doesn't it remind you a chariot?

What a beautiful building...they really need to do this style again....lovely.
This is my first visit to Riga - it is very beautiful and very interesting.
I like your photo and to explain why they don't create things like this nowadays is "cost." It costs too much money. It is cheaper to buy all windows exactly the same than to buy all windows different. And to install them costs more if all are different. I think it is cost.
