April 2010 - timeless

I have been vaguely concerned with preserving snapshots of what is or was in place at a given time, it's probably worth continuing - but I'll have to work out how to do it better!

I suspect that at one time, everything in this photo was once considered to be timeless. Conservative design is often thought to be "timeless" when it is undertaken, colours of a certain genre (beach colours!); yes - timeless as well. Blue cars? Fashionably unfashionable - a colour that will never date.

Timelessness is a state of being I think, which goes from new, through bland, before it becomes ugly, then "modern" and therefore trendy.

The window screen is very unusual to me.
