Produktbeschreibung

Based on 12 visits and interviews with owners of family homes built in the 1960s and 1970s. During this 20-year period, 450,000 houses out of Denmark’s total 1.17 million single-family homes were constructed. These neighbourhoods and homes have been, and still are, home to many people. Despite this, neighbourhoods, houses, gardens, and even the people who have lived or currently live there are often discussed in overly general terms or dismissed as a uniform "type." They are even subject to devaluing rhetoric rather than being appreciated for their architectural and cultural-historical qualities, unique character, and broader context. This book shares the stories and perspectives of parcel house owners, supplemented by reflective essays that ask important questions about this significant aspect of Danish housing culture.
