341 – Garden Gate Mandala

Check out this delightful garden gate art designed and collaboratively built by an amazing local metal artist, Karen Lee-Thompson, of Arts Imaginarium. She also happens to be a wonderful friend, singer, musician, and improv player! AND…she creates exquisite mosaics and precious metal jewelry. Awesome stuff!

263 – Galeries Lafayette Mandala

One would think this grand stained glass window would be found in some spectacular cathedral or museum…one would be wrong. This amazing ceilings sits atop the Galeries Lafayette, a 100+ year old upscale department store in Paris, France.

93 – Nautilus House Mandala

Just about everything in The Nautilus House, designed/created by organic architect, Javier Senosiain, is round or curved; “the floor is the logarithmic spiral, adapting itself to the land.” This 2007 mollusc mansion, near Mexico City, is so filled with mandalas and mandala-like elements, that it would be easier for me to point out where there isn’t one!

58 – Notre Dame Rose Window Mandala

Some of the grandest mandalas can be found in the stained glass rose windows of churches and cathedrals. This one for today’s MotD is particularly spectacular: the south window at Paris’s Notre Dame Cathedral.
