Can Lis, Jrn Utzon

Enamoured with the light of the Mediterranean sun, Can Lis, Jrn Utzon is a visual ode to one of the most iconic homes of the 20th century. An early ideal for design inspired by place, Can Lis rests on a Mallorcan cliff, nearly concealed by the mars stone from which it was made. Photographs by Simon Watson chart the movement of light across Can Lis throughout a day, at turns pink and amber, a source of fascination for the late architect as he designed the home, lovingly named after his wife.
