The Sydney Opera House was designed by Danish architect Jørn Utzon, who won a 1956 international competition. The building is covered by over a million self-cleaning, glossy white and matte cream tiles from Sweden. The structure is a UNESCO World Heritage site, and the first public performance took place there in 1960, long before the official opening in 1973. #sydney #sydneyoperahouse #fbreelsfypシ゚viralfbreelsfypシ゚viral | Mathilda Jaballa Owen

This Cinesound Review newsreel shows how revolutionary Utzon’s creation was.
