A fusion of modern architecture and Mediterranean elements is in vogue on Mallorca

The individual architectural styles and their specific characteristics are diverse, in this article, Engel & Völkers real estate agents would like to introduce you to two architectural trends that are particularly prevalent in the north of Mallorca. The latest is modern purist architecture with clean lines, and big rooms filled with light enjoying the best views that often include the sea. The second style is the traditional Mediterranean build, which is typically characterised by terra cotta roof tiles, white painted facades or natural stone cladding, stone and sandstone details, carved doors and wrought iron features. Today the trend in the design of luxury properties in the Balearic island of Mallorca is to bring these two styles together with fabulous results. The interplay of styles, excellent build quality, beautiful high-end materials, exclusive decoration and furniture, plus smart features combine to create inspirational homes. Beautiful family homes that are practical, functional and infinitely inviting as well as being homes that are the perfect work place away from the office.  Why are properties with modern architecture so popular? Real estate agent Engel & Völkers Mallorca North knows the answer!
