Clarence Dock

Clarence Dock is in my opinion, Leeds' most beautiful area, modern architecture, wide open spaces and large expanses of calm water. Greenery would make it perfect, but I'll take what I can get in this city.
It's beauty is redoubled come the night, when bright lights reflect in the mirrored waters, and soft luminescence suffuses the buildings.
The focal point of the dock, when viewed from the riverside, is the Clarence Dock building, a curling matte white structure with the shape and texture of a beautiful seashell. The building is a tangible evocation of the airiness and freshness the area exudes, from the wide open pool to the wide open sky.
The architecture is incredibly varied, but in harmony, no building overpowering another, yet each pretty in it's own right, and emphasising the strong horizontal planes leading toward the main building.
