In homes adapted for town life or for summer sojourns, from large villas and apartments to small flats. In all, the author describes over thirty homes created during the 20th century and at the start of the 21st. Each decade has an introductory history of its designers, housing policies and trends. 1960s chipboard furniture, 1940s Bruno Mathsson armchairs, Myran chairs, Stig Lindberg cups and the teenager's favourite from the 1950s - the bat chair - are all here. As, too, repainted second-hand, designed and minimalistic homes. Each has ideas for homemakers of the 21st century. Be inspired by this generously illustrated book which mirrors the entire 20th century in Scandinavian design - a book full of contemporary history, nostalgia and Swedish design history. -- Contents: Preface; Turn of the Century 1900 [Stucco Craftsman's House; Captain Jönsson's Home in Viken]; 1900-1910 [Grünewald's White Drawing Room]; 1910s; 1920s; 1930s [White Houses in South Ängby; 42 Square Metres of Heaven; Josef Frank's House in Falsterbo]; 1940s; Summer Home [Sports Cottage at Arsta; Rebuilding an 'Old Hovel'; Modern Life in an 18th Century House; Black House in the Meadow]; 1950s [Two-room Flats From the 1950s; Architect's Flat]; 1960s [Glass House at Kungsör ]; 1970s [A Young, Cheap Way of Living; With Lake Mälaren Outside the Window]; Artist's Homes [Old Barn; From Small Studio to a Home; House on the Island]; 1980s ["My Home is My Hotel"; Design Journalist's Kitchen]; 1990-2000 [H99 Summarises the Decade; Environmentally Approved Living; Terraced House on the Roof; Converted 1940s Three-room Flat; Travelling Light Into the 21st Century]; Bibliography; Index.
