"Så byggdes villan" is a unique exposition of how modern villas' architecture has developed in modern times. The book shows periodical villas and characteristic building details decade by decade, from the first villas built in the 1890s to villas built in the first decade of the 2000s.
In Sweden, there are nearly two million villas, each of which forms part of our habitat, cityscape and cultural heritage. But we know surprisingly little about the living architecture and the period of time for a villa from the years 1890, 1930, 1950 or 2000. The style has varied over the different periods of time. Architecture, floor plans, designs and furnishings have changed over time. The general features are shown in a large number of exact scale illustrations.
