Windows and doors

In this book, architectural antiquarian Erika Ã…berg shows you how to maintain, renovate and make creative reuse projects with old windows and doors.

“Windows are the soul of the house” has become almost a proverb in the building industry. What does it really mean? What are the significance and qualities of old windows? And what about doors? Here, Erika Ã…berg talks about design and stylistic approaches through the ages, different types of glass, function – or the lack of it – and the challenges of keeping the heat in and the cold out.

The timber used for windows and doors in the past was the best available, of a quality that is hard to find today. If cared for properly, it can last for hundreds of years. Here you will learn about restoration of varying degrees of difficulty, from first aid to full restoration.

With smart techniques and solutions, you can get windows and doors that are beautiful and fit your house. It goes without saying that preserving is more environmentally friendly than buying new. Here is an example of an orangery built with recycled windows.

Erika Ã…berg tells you in text and pictures how you can take care of and enjoy your old windows and doors for a long time to come.

Do over do right around the country with the Renovation Frenzy

Do it again, do it right – Around the country with Renoveringsraseriet by authors Gustav Bergström and Alfred Skogberg.

Over the past decades, we have seen container after container filled with our common building heritage. Beautiful 1950s kitchens are worn out and replaced by mass-produced ones, mouth-blown window glass ends up in landfills, and cheap, unmaintainable materials replace old and solid ones.

Since its inception in 2020, Renovation Fury has criticized careless renovations on their popular Facebook and Instagram accounts of the same name.

In this book, we follow the founders, Gustav Bergström and Alfred Skogberg, on a journey to twelve Swedish cities; from Kiruna in the north to Sölvesborg in the south. They talk to architects, urban planners and experts and point out both good examples and pure disasters.

Do it again, do it right is both a portrait of the times and a cry for help. Caring and preserving is not just about nostalgia, it’s a must if we want to achieve our climate goals. It’s high time we started to see the value of craftsmanship and quality, and realize that new is not always better!

Swedish Grace a forgotten modernism

Swedish Grace is a term coined by contemporaries to denote neoclassical Swedish design from the 1910s and 1920s.

The most representative buildings from this era, such as the Stockholm City Library by Gunnar Asplund, the Resurrection Chapel by Sigurd Lewerentz and the Stockholm Concert Hall by Ivar Tengbom, are all world-famous, and most of what was built during the period is among the most highly regarded architecture in Sweden.

In this anthology, specialists from Sweden as well as other countries discuss different perspectives on Swedish Grace and show aspects that are still relevant today.

The big book on building conservation

Stora boken om byggnadsvÃ¥rd is the bible for anyone who longs for an old house. Göran Gudmundsson, founder of the Gysinge Center for Building Conservation, writes knowledgeably and passionately about renovation inside and out, in the city and in the country. Here you get answers to everything you need to know about old houses, from foundation to chimney. And help you think. Both in terms of maintenance and choice of renovation materials, as well as how to solve requirements for functioning kitchens, bathrooms and heating, without losing the genuine feeling. Knowledge of building historical style ideals, and why our old houses look the way they do, is mixed with recipes for mud paint and linseed oil paint, tips on how to paint stencils, print wallpaper borders, repair tiles, soap scrub floors and renovate windows – a lot of concrete advice for those who want to try it themselves.

A practical book about tradition, comfort, quality and reuse for those who want to create a home with soul! The book can be seen as a continuation of Göran Gudmundsson’s popular book series “ByggnadsvÃ¥rd i praktiken”.

Typical of the time

Stylistic shifts in everyday architecture
Tidstypiskt gives those who influence and develop residential buildings and interiors a tool to base long-term sustainable management and development of the building stock on knowledge of existing values.

The authors take us on a hundred-year journey through stylistic changes in everyday architecture. Typical building details from Stockholm are presented decade by decade. From the classicist architecture of the 1880s via the stripped-down functionalism of the 1930s to the 1970s return to the grammar of the stone city as an ideal.

The building details vary with the prevailing architectural style, from the composition of the facades to the division of the windows and the design of the door handles. The reader is given the opportunity to learn and interpret the buildings and details of different periods. Knowledge provides richer experiences and constantly new impressions of everyday architecture – our built cultural heritage.

Photographs and drawings clearly show the development of residential buildings in the city and the traces left by different styles.

A drawing section makes it possible to date door linings and floor plinths – or to use the drawings to make new ones.

The book is aimed at architects, real estate developers, property managers, property owners, but also at housing associations and homeowners. The book is also suitable for teaching purposes.
