Utzon's Own Houses

Descriere

This book presents the private houses that Utzon built and dreamt of building, but never finished. Beginning with the first house in Hellebæk built in 1951, over the never accomplished house in Bayview, Australia up to his final house, Can Feliz in Mallorca built in 1994, all demonstrating the originality and understanding of a location’s requisites and traditions, which has won Utzon worldwide fame. ‘Utzons own houses’ contains a number of drawings that have never been published before including the four drafts for a house in Bayview that never got past the drawing stage due to the fact that the architect had already left Australia before the authorities approved the project. The book contains photographs by Søren Kuhn.
