Jørn Utzon
moved to Majorca in the early 1970s, following the stress of the Sydney
Opera House debacle, living in a house designed by himself.
With his wife Lis & family he later moved to another house designed
by himself, Can Feliz. The architecture is very solid and simple. A small
window allows light to funnel in to the living space at a certain time
of year and time of day. The views over the Mediterranean are fantastic
and the exterior space uses beautiful chunky stone benches by the architect.
This second home on Majorca has been described as a miniature acropolis.
