Dungeness, Romney Marsh

Dungeness is a very unique area located on the coast of Kent, having being referred to as the UK's only desert. Even though it doesn't have the characteristics to qualify as such, it definitely resembles one, due to its scarce vegetation. 

It is a very intriguing landscape, not only because of the mix between beach and desert-like scenery, but also because of scatterings of old boats, railways and fishing huts. This mix leaves Dungeness with a very eerie but also fascinating atmosphere. That which would contribute to the effect we are trying to achieve through dystopian-looking landscapes that could possibly show the effects of climate change.

The energy company EDF currently owns this area, since it is a private estate, and has one of its nuclear power plants situated in close proximity to the residents. Another element that only adds to the strangeness of the location.
