Pool House Olsson (GOTLAND, SWEDEN)2006

The client asked us to design a poolhouse using a red stone (Älvdalskvartsit). We decided to make the pool and the poolhouse the same measurements: 6 x 12 m. The house is rendered in a red plaster similar to the colourof the stone used on the ground around the pool.

House EMBLA (STOCKHOLM, SWEDEN)2006

An invited competition to design inexpensive and energy efficient houses in wood. We decided to construct the building out of prefabricated units of solid wood panels that would be transported to the site on trucks. By choosing a single size, we managed to reduce the cost of the windows. Instead of using different sizes, we used a random pattern in their placement. This also allowed us to control the number of windows facing a particular direction. More windows to the south instead of bigger windows to the south. The balconies, which were also made out of solid

wood panels, were hung from the walls to minimize cold bridges.

Villa Brobacke (SALTSJÖBADEN, SWEDEN)2002

The highly restricted budget for this villa located on an extremely steep site south of Stockholm was viewed not as a limiting problem, but as a chance to play with the typology of the family house. Clad in a wooden panel painted with traditional black Falu Rödfärg, the building grows from two to three floors as it stretches out down the hill on which it stands, revealing its perfectly rational plan: structural members adher to cost-efficient depths, and all materials are chosen to give the biggest bang for the buck.A project that shows how some constraints can actually aid

in giving birth to a highly unconstrained architecture.
