VILLA VÄRDE
AREA: 120 m²
SOVRUM: 3

We wanted value for our money. We needed a home with room for one, maybe two children. I wanted to keep the costs down because both me and Per just started on new employments and you never know with interest rates. Per wanted a modern house that would stand out, for sure a villa doesn't have to look boring just because they're cheap?

The choice wasn't difficult when we saw villa Value. Not only is the construction cost low, when you take into account that there's no heating costs, it certainly feels like a safe economic alternative. Per loved its shape, it was something that we had never seen before, the building seems to twist, it's truly a house in motion. Indoors, it's difficult to imagine that you're in a small compact villa when standing in the airy living room with its roof height of nearly six meters.

 

 

VILLA TÅRTAN
AREA: 173 m²
SOVRUM: 4

When I think of our house its structured in three layers; three floors each with different spatial qualities and functions.

On the ground floor there are public rooms; the dining room, living room and the kitchen. Here we usually have our parties and meet our friends. There are large windows and you can go directly into the garden. The rooms are large and open. On the second floor there are smaller rooms; bedrooms, playroom, storage, bathrooms and a terrace. This floor is more private. The top floor is one large open room. From the windows we have a beautiful view of the surroundings. I use the room as a studio, sometimes I paint the landscape, sometimes still lives. But today, it is not like usual; my husband turns 50 so we have placed a long table across the entire length of the room. The table is set for 40 people and soon the first guests will arrive. I am putting the finishing touches on the birthday cake and as I place cake bottoms, strawberry jam and cream in piles after each other I think of our house.

 

 

VILLA DRAGSPEL
AREA: 100-200 m²
SOVRUM: 2-4

After our retirement me and Gunnar decided to leave our apartment and move out to the countryside in a small house. Even though we wanted to have villa Dragspel from the very beginning, it took some time before we decided on exactly what the house should look like. It has shifted in size between two, three and four rooms as we have looked at various sites. It was easy to see how the different alternatives would look, the bedrooms are simply added to each other on one short end of the house. In the end we settled for a site where we could place a 20 meters long house containing three rooms; a master bedroom for me and Anders, a living room and a guest room that are used when our children come to visit.

The house has one closed and one more open side. A storage wall runs along the closed side. A corridor stretches the full length of the house, we call for the gallery, because here we hang most of our art. When you stand in the living room and look towards our bedroom, you see the house in its full length and it seems much larger than its 100m ².

 

 

VILLA MITTSKEPP
AREA: 160 m²
SOVRUM: 2

We wanted a traditional passive house says Inga. New technology doesn't have to look strange. No one like those modern white cubes with open plans. I have always loved my grandmothers house where I used to spend the summers as a child. It has many similarities with Villa Mittskepp. The facades look nice, something new is happening on every side. The plan is similar to a traditional Swedish timber log house, in which the length of the tree trunks determined the room widths.

You enter Villa Mittskepp through a winter garden, a hall full of Dazzling plants, here we cultivate tomatoes and orchids. Inside the house you are met by a spacious room. It contains both the living room and the hallway, but it is divided by a piece of furniture containing a wardrobe and a small toilet. The room is open to the roof ridge, just as in old houses. We are sitting in the kitchen and chat over a cup of coffee. -Shall we go to the winter garden and pick us a bunch grapes? Asks Inga.

 

VILLA FIXA
AREA: 190 m²
BEDROOM: 4

FIXA STORY
(in swedish)

Både jag och min fru älskar våra hobbies och vi letade därför efter ett hus med plats för det lilla extra. När vi såg planlösningen för villa Fixa visste vi genast att vi hittat rätt. Här finns väl tilltagna förråd och förvaringsytor. På bottenplanet har vi var sitt hobbyrum; ett till min modelljärnväg och ett till min frus gigantiska samling perenner. Vi valde att sätta in ytterdörrar till båda rummen, på det sättet kan jag enkelt bära in och ut skrymmande landskapsmodeller och min fru kan gå direkt ut på tomten och plantera sina senaste fynd.

Det häftigaste rummet är ändå vardagsrummet. Att vi valde att ha det öppet i två våningar istället för att lägga till ett extra sovrum är inget vi ångrar. Här är det nästan sju meter högt i tak till nocken och man ser tydligt husets volym med dess förskjutna sadeltak.

 

VILLA SIDA VID SIDA
AREA: 160 m²
BEDROOM: 2

 

SIDA VID SIDA STORY
(in swedish)

Familjen Strömblad har alltid skiljt på nytta och nöje, därför tyckte de att "Villa Sida vid sida" verkade så tilltalande. Här har arkitekten delat upp byggnaden i tre huskroppar med olika funktioner. Vardagsrum, kök och det stora sovrummet ligger i den största delen som har högst takhöjd. Sedan kommer huskroppen innehållande tvätt, förvaring, bad och det mindre sovrummet. Sist ligger det lilla entré rummet där man kommer in och hänger av sig.

Idag har familjen inflyttningsfest, alla har samlats i vardagsrummet, här är det stort och luftigt, med högt i tak och generösa ytor. Man blir inte påmind om de vardagliga sysslorna, utrymmena för dem ligger i en annan del av huset.

 

THE PASSIVE HOUSE CONCEPT
Passive houses are extremely well-insulated buildings that are largely heated by the energy already present in the building - people and our household equipment generate a lot of energy.
