Como esta história dos blogs está na moda, resolvi tentar fazer o meu próprio blog. O único problema era o tema... de que raio é que eu havia de falar no blog? Pensei, e pensei, e pensei... e depois de tanto pensar, a única ideia que surgiu foi... nada...

Strange Buildings - Part I: The Crooked House - Sopot, Poland
Though it looks like something out of a surrealist painting or a Disney cartoon - this is a real building.
This building is situated in Sopot, Poland.
It is an extension of the already existing shopping and service center which main entrance is at Haffnera 6 Street.
Most of all, this popular walking promenade is a meeting place of the Tri-City Bohemia, people looking for fun and joy.
There is a variety of romantic cafes, restaurants, shops and entertainment centers in this area.
Opened in 2004, the award winning, by Polish architects Szotynscy Zaleski it was inspired by the fairytale illustrations of Jan Marcin Szancer and the drawings of Jan Marcin Szancer and Per Dahlberg.
Arguably the most photographed object in Sopot, Centrum Rezydent’s 4,000m2 of luscious curves are topped with a roof of blue-green enameled shingles designed to give the impression of a dragon.
Colorful stained glass entrances, stone elevation decors and windows framed with sandstone make a great impression.
There is also an unusual roof covered with sheet metal with enamel roof tiles colored with green shades of blue and Parishian blue, which in the whole creates an illusion of dragon scales.
The building promises more from the outside than it actually delivers once you’ve entered.
Do as the tourists do and take a souvenir picture before moving onto one of the other choices on the strip.
