Read Time:36 Second

This enchanting project by the SPUD Group (Space, Placemaking and Urban Design), designed by young architects at Feilden Clegg Bradley Studios delighted us on our cold walk on the exposed coastline of the Lymington marshes.

coastline landscapes — External cladding comprises dark charred timber created using a Japanese technique called Shou Sugi Ban

The small buildings which resemble beach huts, bird hides or fishing huts fit beautifully into the flat landscape and can be rotated by visitors using a steering wheel.
