    Öppenhet och rymd i det tidiga 2000-talets villaarkitektur

    The aim of this Master´s thesis in Art History and Visual Studies is to examine the existence and the expressions of openness and interior space in the contemporary Swedish architecture of singlefamily houses. Research has focused on open-plan housing with open connections between kitchen and living areas, large windows, walls of glass, high ceiling heights and entresol or loft levels, using two case studies and analyses of seven reference objects. Interpretation is based on phenomenological theoretical perspectives. Houses that are more or less transparent permit views from both the inside and the outside. A discussion of this potential dilemma is supported by sociological perspectives on identity, life-style, self-presentation, privacy and publicity.
