If we were to describe a Swedish style house in only a few words, we would use wood, wide windows and functionality. Wood is the construction material of choice, found in abundance, wide windows are the practical option designed to attract as much natural light as possible on those prolonged winter gloomy days, while white gives the feeling of space and light in a part of the world with a harsh climate and where winter nights seem to last forever. The color is to be found not only on the interior or exterior walls, but also in floors, furniture and accessories, opening up the space and creating this depth feeling.<\/p>\n
The first plan we picked is a traditional Swedish style house, built from bricks, with exterior woodwork which is perfectly integrated in the fa\u00e7ade. This substantial family home has 5 bedrooms and 2 public rooms. The first floor second lounge opens onto our popular gable end balcony and can offer a high vaulted ceiling with exposed beams. The house is flanked by a covered terrace, with wide windows, a space of repose on those chilly Scandinavian mornings and evenings.<\/p>\n
