Swedish house

This modern private house is located on the top of a hill, in a residential area north west of Gothenburg overviewing the Atlantic archipelago. Designed by Johannes Norlander Arkitektur AB for a small family, the House Tumle has two floors and occupies an area of 168 square meters. The unwelcoming black facade is clad in black corrugated metal sheeting. The first floor includes kitchen and living areas and there are bedrooms and work space on the top floor. It looks extremely black from the outside and crystal white inside the house. It's just amazing contrast. From a distance the building appears abstract, like an icon of a house, approaching it, more physical and present.

Villa Nackros, designed by Swedish architect Staffan Strindberg, is located in Kalmar on the east coast of Sweden. The house combines all the convenience and comfort, that modern house can offer its owner, with outstanding views of the water and sense of freedom. Residence provides 178 sqm of living area, 30 sqm terrace close to the water and a 100sqm "garden" on the roof. In fact, 3-storeyed villa is situated on the water surface and resembles a ship. On the ground level there are mainly utility and public rooms, on the second there are bedrooms, and the third offers space in the open air, like a deck.
