LIVING ARCHITECTURE presents Volume 4 of the book series SCANDINAVIAN MODERN HOUSES. It contains Per Nagel’s “new photographs of some of the most significant Scandinavian private houses built during the twentieth century to elucidate the distinctive character of Nordic architecture, and its fine interplay with the vastness of nature. Nordic architects have developed a special awareness and sense of clarity regarding one of the most important elements: the light! This sensibility for the different tonal qualities of light, and the extremely conscious use of light as the most important form in producing spaces - the spirit of Nordic Light! Included among many architects: Lund Hagem, Norway; Jørn Schütze, Bertel Udsen, Knud Holscher, Denmark; Wngårdh, Sweden; Arrak, Raili & Reima Pietilä, Helin & Co., Finland and Studio Granda, Iceland.
