CARDIFF'S EXOTIC PINK HUT!

One of the more unusual landmarks of modern Cardiff is the pink lookout tower beyond the engineering marvel (when the fish pass is working) that is Cardiff Bay Barrage. The distinctive, flamingo-like hut on spindly legs was intended for use by yacht clubs to start and oversee races in the Channel, but due to it being in the wrong location for such a task, it has never been used. (This is what we were told when we did a really insightful Cardiff Council-organised little tour of the Barrage control room, by the way.)

This pink hut graphic is by local designer Steven Smith. It celebrates this fun oddity and captures the 'sunny side up' spirit of our Cardiffornia lifestyle brand, which seeks to celebrate the silver linings in the UK's wettest city. This design is available as an A3-size print, a postcard or on a t-shirt. We hopes you enjoy! More of Steven's work can be seen on his own site, here.

BUY THE POSTCARD

Pink hut postcards

£1 each plus one-off £1 for UK p&p

 

Interesting things you can write on the back of this postcard when sending it to friends or family include facts like the Cardiff Bay Barrage is 1.1 kilometres long and cost £220million to build between the years of 1994 and 1999. Another fun fact is that the control tower regulates the lagoon's water levels, so if they see marine birds' nests becoming engulfed due to extra water coming down from the Ely or Taff rivers, they let more water out of the plughole.
