FOR some, La Frégate Café is a thing of beauty designed by one of Britain’s best architects…
But for others, it is one of the strangest buildings of our time, and looks more like a pregnant armadillo than an upturned boat.
But now the UK’s Twentieth Century Society is leading calls to give the building listed status and has urged the public to throw their support behind the campaign.
The UK charity – which has led a number of projects to preserve buildings with architectural significance – believes that just because the café isn’t a few hundred years old, it doesn’t mean it shouldn’t be protected.
‘The architecture of today is the heritage of tomorrow,’ they said.
But do you agree? Take part in our poll below.
