The iconic Sydney Opera House, sadly he never returned to Aust to see it completed.

 

[7.62marksman]

Yes manpa correct

In 1957, Utzon unexpectedly won thecompetitionto design theSydney Opera House. His submission was one of 233 designs from 32 countries, many of them from the most famous architects of the time.[6]Although he had won six other architectural competitions previously, the Opera House was his first non-domestic project. One of the judges,Eero Saarinen, described it as "genius" and declared he could not endorse any other choice.[7]
