Swedens most beautiful house?

All buildings must be executed in such a way as to take account of durability, utility and beauty. Vitruvius

To describe a building as beautiful therefore suggests more than a mere aesthetic fondness; it implies an attraction to the particular way of life this structure is promoting through its roof, door handles, window frames, staircase and furnishings. A feeling of beauty is a sign that we have come upon a material articulation of certain ideas of a good life. Alain de Botton The Architecture of Happiness, 2006, p72

The Idea The contemporary context Assumption of society Assumption of the human being A way of life The Building Scale, color, light, textures, materials, form, proportions, symmetry Cost Expression of the idea References/ associations

The Material Usefulness, work performed; shelter, activities The Aesthetic Individual level, experience, reactions, emotions, feelings The Symbolic Social level, social/ cultural context, associations, meaning, identity, communication

"Architecture is always marshalling possibilities from all directions to do something that hasn't happened before, … "Not for the hell of it, not for your ego but to create a degree of progress and make life more adventurous and give a sense of drive to society as a whole. Rem Koolhaas
