Pastel colors, round shapes, summer vibes…so many evidences that this hotel is in Miami. When it is not.

A house on the beach, a professional beach surveillance building ? Not at all. Much more intriguing.

Those huts look like pool cabins, don’t they ? Well they are cabins to a larger pool than you can expect.
Cette version sophistiquée de la maison sur le sable fait très envie en ces temps de météo trébuchante. Il y a la plage, le bois flotté, le blanc et le bleu .. tout y est, et pourtant, c’est le penthouse d’un grand immeuble avec appartements et centre commercial. L’illusion est parfaite.
This sophisticated version of the beach house is very attractive in these times of stumbling weather. The beach is there, the driftwood, the white and the blue .. everything is there, and yet this is the penthouse of a large building with apartments and shopping center. A perfect illusion.

Qui a dit que l’industriel et la nature faisaient mauvais ménage ? Pourtant pris dans leur aspect le plus brut, ils se marient très bien, comme le montre ce kiosque de plage à Torquay, en Australie.
Les plaques d’acier qui le composent ont servi à protéger des bâtiments pendant les dernières inondations et leur aspect brut, légèrement rouillé, a été gardé tel quel pour la création des murs de ce kiosque. Ce lieu fourni aux baigneurs et aux surfeurs, du café de haute qualité, des vestiaires et des toilettes. Un recyclage très réussi.
Who said industrial and nature did not fit? If you consider them in their most basic form, they go very well together, as this beach kiosk in Torquay, Australia, clearly demonstrate.
The steel plates chosen to build the kiosk were previously used to protect buildings during the recent Victoria floods and their gross appearance, slightly rusty, was kept unchanged for the creation of the walls of the booth. This place provided bathers and surfers, high quality coffee, changing rooms and toilets. A very successful recycling.
