Igor Stravinsky
Stravinsky designed and built His Own House In Ustilug
Ustyluh, Volyn Oblast, Ukraine (Russian Empire)
In 1907, Stravinsky designed and built his own house in Ustilug, which he called "my heavenly place". In this house, Stravinsky worked on seventeen of his early compositions, among them Feu d'artifice, The Firebird, Petrushka, and The Rite of Spring. Recently renovated, the house is now a Stravinsky house-museum open to the public.
