one of the single family houses of the plan.

 

lewerentz placed all windows in the gables and the resulting blind roof and facade are striking and one of the first times we fully the recognise the architect to come.

Architect: Ralph Erskine

Built in: 1991

Builder: Stiftelsen Juristernas hus

 

The Lawyers House, Juristernas hus, opened in 1991 and is designed by architect Ralph Erskine. The house has a slightly irregular shape and the floor plan is a semicircle that curves around an old oak tree.

 

The building was nominated for Träpriset, The Wood Award, in 1992, which is a special prize awarded for "good Swedish architecture in wood."

The former spa (founded in 1707) is the home of the well-known Ramlösa mineral water. Many of the now protected buildings from the hay-day of the spa are well preserved. They are now primarily used as residences and offices. The Ramlösa brunnspark is today a wonderful, quiet park for visitors to enjoy.

a look through the front door into the stairwell, great and very simple layering of space.

the dark building with the white interior since became something of a trope in nordic architecture.

Vaksalaskolan, Uppsala, Sweden. One of my favourite buildings!

Cyclist in Copenhagen, Denmark

Copenhagen is more or less the capital of cyclists in Europe, at very close competition with Amsterdam. Everybody rides a bike here no matter the weather or the time of day.

This photo was taken on a rainy summer day. The Black Diamond building can be seen in the back.

architects: sigurd lewerentz (1885-1975) and torsten stubelius (1883–1963).

 

talk about modest beginnings. this could give us an idea about the missing windows in the pålsjö forest pavilion, though.

 

lewerentz won the competition for the forest cemetery in stockholm with asplund the same year.
