Thorpeness from Aldeburgh

Thorpeness was built as a holiday folly in the 1930s and the 'Castle' is actually flats. Shining out on the left is Dune House http://www.bdonline.co.uk/the-dune-house-thorpeness-by-jarmund-vigsnæs-architects/5014974.article continuing the tradition of building 'silly for the seaside'; the architects seem to have done the 3-D design forgetting the thickness of the roof finish, so some of the angles don't work out quite right…happy memories

I do like this shot from the beach and the angle adds to the pleasure to view.

Those are some acute roof angles, a fine image of this unique seaside architecture. V

I think it's a delightful scene, so one is a bit quirky...looks a lovely place...:)

If you're going to do silly it's the perfect place

Definitely some interesting looking architecture on the seaside! The angles may not work out well on that one building, but it certainly is flashy!
