Humans excel at designing and constructing technological marvels like cars and aeroplanes. Yet, when it comes to the very houses we live in, do we apply the same level of creativity and bold innovation? Or are we too constrained by notions of how we think things ought to be? In this beautiful book, architect and professor Fredrik Lund explores the concept of constructing homes that not only offer a refuge of tranquillity in our hectic, modern lives but also blur the boundaries between indoor and outdoor living. Imagine houses with internal gardens, spaces that exist in a liminal state between inside and outside—where being indoors feels like an embrace with nature. Lund presents a unique approach to designing homes, drawing inspiration from the traditional Norwegian outbuildings, barns, and sawmills. He invites the reader into a vibrant world of unexpected delights, masterful woodwork, poetic expression, and an enhanced quality of life nestled in silence. Through his adept use of simple lines, Lund brings these houses to life, making them both accessible and vivid. Five renowned architects – Hector Fernandez Elorza, Siri Moseng, Nathan Romero Muelas, Mads Øiern, and Christoffer Harlang – contribute with essays where they offer their reflections on Lund's drawings and ideas, along with broader musings on houses and design. This book addresses architecture students, practising architects, and anyone passionate about the pursuit of thoughtful, well-designed living spaces. Fredrik Lund is a practising architect and a professor of architecture at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) in Trondheim.
