Majorca: The Art of Living by Lanning Aldrich. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9781556708473.

-- Situated at the crossroads of Europe and Africa, directly south of Barcelona, Majorca has inspired a stunning array of architectural styles and been home to a diverse group of artists from Chopin and Miro in the past, to Philippe Stark and Michael Douglas today. -- Stunningly reproduced, this book celebrates 30 of the most interestingly designed private houses, coastal villas, converted beach cabins, and tradition farmhouses of Majorca, as well as the lesser known Balearic Islands of Ibiza, Minorca, and Formentera. -- Captures the romance of island life and the mix of Mediterranean and Moorish cultures, ranging from traditional baroque and Africa tribal to pared-down Scandinavian and modern minimalism. -- Includes a resource guide of local galleries, art studios, shops, markets, restaurants, and places to stay.
