Creating a New Home in Mallorca

Creating a New Home in Mallorca immerses readers in the renovation of a historic house in Felanitx, Mallorca. This beautifully illustrated book chronicles bestselling author and designer Malene Birger’s transformation of a dilapidated 600 m² building, uninhabited for over 40 years, into a modern, functional home.

Completed between 2022 and 2024, the project was documented by Birger and renowned photographer Jean Marie Del Moral. Rich photography and personal insights reveal Birger’s creative vision and the balance of tradition and modernity that defines the space.

More than a record of renovation, this book inspires anyone seeking to reimagine their own living spaces. Every room, piece of furniture, and work of art reflects a fusion of cultural influences, contemporary design, and Mediterranean spirit. The thoughtful interplay of colors, textures, and shapes creates an atmosphere that is both inviting and sophisticated.

A must for lovers of design, art, and Mediterranean living, Creating a New Home in Mallorca celebrates the art of renovation and modern interior design.
