We all know people who almost never get approached because they’re really good looking. Like, too good looking. They’re the kind of people with artfully strong bone structure that can only descend from Danish aristocracy; it’s the kind of beauty that inspires middle-aged men that look like pudding to publish creepy soliloquies about them in Vanity Fair:

She is pushing 50 and beautiful, not in that otherworldly, catwalk way (though she literally has several catwalks) but in a minor knock-around key, a blue mood, a slow dance, a very spiky building. Actually that’s exactly what she is. She is tall but only with the help of aggregate panels composed of pink granite quarried. She can be sexy and composed even while naked but only in character. She’s the Sydney Opera House.

Everyone knows her superficially, from the outside, but how many of you 8.2 million who come to gawk at her every year have made an effort to get to really know her? To encourage people to get to know the real Opera House she, with Principal Partner Samsung, is giving away 12 killer, money-cant-buy experiences that show off secret, special parts of the building. Every aspect, from fine-dining to incredible guest speakers to opera, dance, theatre and comedy, will be tied to a unique experience that you can win.

All you Apartmento-reading architecture and interior-design fiends can win an incredible tour through the belly of the building right now, seeing things most people never get to with Jan Utzon — an architect and son of the man who designed the building.

Sign yourself or your design-loving mate up to win, here.
