Colour is king at this Mallorca home by Isla Architects. The pink home is nestled among the vineyards between Santa Maria del Cami and Santa Eugenia and according to the realtor, it’s inspired by the tropical Mexican coast. Pivoting glass doors lead into the island home which is set over a single-storey, with crisp rectangular volumes capped by terracotta roof tiles. Inside, rooms have high ceilings, exposed beams and floor-to-ceiling glass doors that open onto private terraces, a garden and a swimming pool. Peek inside.
