Life in Mallorca
We are delighted to welcome artworks by Sara Jorslov to our office! Her paintings capture some of the things we love most about Mallorca – the turquoise Mediterranean Sea, the dramatic landscapes, and the extraordinary light that makes the island so unique. But behind the beautiful colours and shapes lies a personal story, a deep love of nature, and a desire to communicate something greater through art. A Deep Connection to Mallorca Sara Jorslov was born in Mallorca and has had a close connection to the island’s natural beauty since childhood. The coastal landscapes of the Serra de Tramuntana have been particularly meaningful to her. Here, surrounded by cliffs, mountains, and the ever-changing colours of the Mediterranean, her fascination with nature’s shapes and movements first began. This love […]
As the evenings get a little cooler and the pace of the island begins to slow down, it’s time to swap beach lunches for long dinners indoors. Autumn is one of our favourite times of year in Mallorca, not least when it comes to dining out. We’ve selected five restaurants that feel particularly inviting right now, with warm and charming atmospheres, great food and cosy settings that make you want to stay just a little longer. LUME & CO As the temperatures begin to drop, Lume & Co is one of those places that really comes into its own. The restaurant is set in an old building just outside central Palma, with stone walls, wooden beams and a warm, rustic atmosphere that feels particularly suited to autumn. While the […]
Swedish sculptor Lotta Lundberg creates handmade figurative sculptures with a pared-back, personal expression. The figures depict people, but they are not portraits. Instead, they explore feelings and states of mind as stillness, strength, reflection and presence. Lotta works primarily with a clay-based sculptural material. Form comes first. She then uses colour and painted surfaces to strengthen the character of each piece. In 2026, her collection Return to Home was presented at Concepció by Nobis in Palma de Mallorca. The collection centres on a simple idea: finding your way back to yourself. Mallorca has become a natural setting for her work. The strong light, old stone buildings and the fluid relationship between indoor and outdoor spaces allow the sculptures to change depending on where they are placed. A figure can […]

We are very excited to have an artwork by British artist Adrian Elgie in our office. His paintings have already made their mark, bringing strong colours, intriguing textures and an expression that feels both playful and sophisticated. Adrian has had the sea and nature close to him throughout his life. He was born in Weston-super-Mare in Somerset, while his parents have their roots in Marazion in Cornwall and St Andrews in Scotland. Coastal landscapes and the sea have therefore always been a natural part of his life, and have also become an important source of inspiration for his art. His path to becoming an artist, however, was not entirely straightforward. After studying at Cardiff Art College in the early 1980s, Adrian moved to London and embarked on a […]
One of the questions we get most often is: Where should you live – Cala Major and San Agustín, or Portixol and El Molinar? At first glance, the choice may seem difficult. Both are by the sea, both are just minutes from central Palma, and both are among the city’s most desirable residential areas. But the lifestyle they offer is actually very different. Cala Major & San Agustín: Mediterranean holiday feeling, close to the city If your idea of Mallorca is turquoise water, beach days and a lively Mediterranean atmosphere, Cala Major and San Agustín are hard to beat. Cala Major has the feeling of a holiday destination, yet Palma is only around five minutes away by car. The neighbourhood is built into the hills, with a mix of […]

Just a few minutes from central Palma, yet with the feeling of being far away from the city’s pace, lies San Agustín, one of Palma’s most charming and relaxed coastal neighbourhoods. With its perfect location between Palma and the beautiful southwest coast, San Agustín offers a combination that is hard to find in Mallorca: close proximity to the city’s restaurants, shopping and culture, while the sea, small swimming coves and a more peaceful way of life are right around the corner. Unlike many of the island’s more tourist-oriented areas, San Agustín has preserved the feeling of a genuine residential neighbourhood. People live here all year round, children walk to school, neighbours meet over a coffee, and daily life revolves around the sea, nature and the small local places that give […]
