Anders Berensson Architects has designed a small extension
to a summer house in the Stockholm archipelago. The project has a limited
budget and we promised the client to design the cheapest and easiest extension possible
with one reservation, that the firm would designed and build the windows
instead of buying standard ones. The two new windows fixes what’s missing in the
existing house, a work space, a quiet and bright place to read and a sky tower
with a window on top to look at the stars at night. The house also features some
advanced gingerbread carpentry at the sky tower. The ground breaking of the
house has just started and the house should be finished next summer.
