Contemporary Living in an Old Majorcan Mill

Es Moli d'en Morei is a dream retreat by anybody's standards: a former windmill located in the Majorcan town of Arta and imaginatively converted into an elegant contemporary villa, in which interior and exterior architecture merge with the landscape around it. In this book, Tom Solo's eloquent photographs record this magical building both before and after its conversion, unfolding the tale of its owner's dream household as it slowly materialized before his eyes. Full of pleasing architectural emphases such as wide squat doorways, a broad open patio, a turret and a tiered composition that allows the building to descend steadily into its spectacular surroundings, this idyll induces an atmosphere of languor and serenity.
