Sidney Opera House


Hi! Today i’m going to talk about a building I like: Sidney Opera House.One of the most famous buildings of the 20th century. In fact it was declared World Heritage Site.It’s not my favorite building ,but I think that it was something different from that time (It was built in 1937).This is like a performing arts centre. like theater , ballet , opera or musical productions.Designed by the architect Jørn Utzon, with a series of large concrete "shells", each composed of sections of a sphere forming the roofs of the structure. This is what caught my attention the first time I saw this building ( in a picture :( ) , How the pieces, that come from a sphere, a volume, are reordered and composed as a new form. Like something broken and reordered in a different way.
]It's sad to think that we're so far from buildings used like arts centre of this magnitude. Because in Chile the art it's not appreciated like in others countries.I hope to someday visit this building. I think it’s a work you must see at least one time in your life.
