Doors 66. Flaine, France, 4 April 2019
No ‘chocolate box’ photographs here I’m afraid.
Flaine is a very high ski resort in the French Alps conceived in 1960 and completed in 1969. The brutalist style of concrete apartment blocks sets up a synergy or contrast with the Alpine landscape, depending on your point of view. An excellent essay on the development of Flaine by Alastair Philip Wiper can be found here and is worth a read if you are interested in architecture.
So my photographs are perhaps not what you’d expect from a skiing trip in the Alps… sorry. There are however doors, you get them everywhere, perhaps just not so quaint.
Enjoy if you can…
So there it is. Flaine doors (part one).
Access to more superb doors can be found at the inspired Norm 2.0 blog (check out the comments section for links)

At least you had fun there, even if there was a dearth of doors or doors we’d expect to find. The bits of scenery that crept in at the edges of the photos were great, though. 🙂

My favorite door was the one on the mountainside that advertised the gas station! Great photo!

It sure looks like you had great snow conditions on the slopes. Nice job finding those doors too!

It concentrates the mind being in a place without pretty doors.
