If we build in the hills we get better views, more privacy and we save a lot of the land that can otherwise be used for agriculture. Looking at it…
They turn out so cool! It's something that still isn't as thought about as it should be. So many people are so focused on everything new. They look for lots…
A big part of a new house is the foundation. More so in Scandinavia and other colder parts of the world than Florida or Spain. The reason is its sophisticated…
Sounds like I'm trying to sell it, but I'm not. Brune Kulle is Swedish for Brown Hill. A pretty rubbish name for a new development if you ask me. Especially…

A Sunday drive is a Swedish thing where you use the time you normally have off to drive around, very slowly, to look at things that interests you. My grandfather…
