SYDNEY OPERA
Jorn Utzon y Ove Arup
Sidney.Australia.1959-1973
The Sydney Opera House is considered a masterpiece of great beauty internationally. An essential symbol for the Australian nation.
A series of white shells, juxtaposed and erect, recall the sails of ships. something new, imaginative and also very suitable for the location in which the building was to be located, in the Bay of Sydney. The building houses several theater complexes, all organized on central axis and axiality. where roofs are covered by a number of over one million pieces of ceramics, changing color depending on sunshine, creating a multicolored mosaic that attracts visitors .
