🎧 Listen to Introduction
Completed in 1973, the Sydney Opera House is a great work of 20th century architecture, incorporating a variety of ideas and innovations in terms of architectural form and structural design. Set in a magnificent waterscape, at the tip of a peninsula jutting into Sydney Harbour, this great urban sculpture has had a lasting impact on architecture. The Sydney Opera House consists of three interconnected sets of arched "shells" with roofs covering two main performance halls and a restaurant. The shells are set on a large platform and surrounded by terrace areas that serve as pedestrian lobbies. In 1957, an international jury awarded the project for the Sydney Opera House to Danish architect Jørn Utzon, marking a radically new approach to architecture.
