Following the success of Conrad White's previous book about Blakstad (Ibiza Blakstad Houses, December 2012 and revised May 2019, ISBN 978 849936 174 1), this new book collects the new and most recent creations of the architecture studio founded by Rolf Blakstad and developed later by his sons Rolf and Nial. This 336-page book shows, through some incredible photographs by Conrad White, some of the most representative houses that the Blakstad family has designed and constructed in the island of Ibiza. Rolph Blackstad exhaustively studied Ibizan architecture when it was still a living millennial tradition, with peasant builders working with rules passed down by word of mouth from father to son. The architect's study of these builders formed the basis of his research, design and building for more than 40 years. This book is the latest tribute to Blackstad's work in the wake of his recent death.

A photographic celebration of the unique look of Ibiza architecture, including houses, bars, beach clubs, restaurants, hotels in the most beautiful locations. This is a new guide to Ibiza created from a photographic viewpoint, seeking the appeal of the locations through the eyes of a unique artist with his camera. All of the photographs in this book are brand new commissions. Ibiza is an island of magical contrasts that reflect the passage of time through its history, colonisations and its people of different roots, customs and ways of understanding its particular environment. The island is bathed in a magical light, accentuating the deep blue of the sky and the turquoise of the sea. Conrad White's photography was featured in Loft's previous book on this subject: Ibiza: Blackstad Houses (ISBN 978 849936 906 8) which was launched to great acclaim at the Architectural Association's London School of Architecture in February 2013. In the author’s own words, “the camera is my brush, and the light is my colour”.

The definitive monograph on the ideas and work of the Canadian-born (of Norwegian ancestry), Florence-trained, Ibiza-based architect. The fusion of Ibizan traditions with modern function, form, and taste is the hallmark of Blackstad's projects, which were dedicated to conserving the cultural significance of the island within today's architecture. Rolph Blackstad exhaustively studied Ibizan architecture when it was still a living millennial tradition, with peasant builders working with rules passed down by word of mouth from father to son. The architect's study of these builders formed the basis of his research, design and building for more than 40 years. This book is a tribute to Blackstad's work in the wake of his recent death. In it, the reader will discover an unbroken tradition reaching back to distant origins; a design based on historical Mediterranean architecture, combining style and building techniques to suit contemporary lifestyles.
