About
In 1930, Gunnar Asplund, together with Sigurd Lewerentz, were contracted by The Swedish Society of Crafts and Design to make a boardroom in the building of Nybrogatan 7. Asplund designed the interiors and Lewerentz designed the windows and doors. The room is called ?Asplundrummet? (Asplund's Room) is prime example of Swedish modernism ? functionalism.0Asplund designed unique textiles, furniture, tables, shelving and lighting for the boardroom in a typical modernist 1930s style. Today the room is maintained in mint condition, mainly untouched. The book includes photographs, plans and construction drawings, including Lewerentz's glazing assembly.0/0Den ombyggnad och inredning, som Gunnar Asplund gjorde, på uppdrag av Svenska slöjdföreningen, på Nybrogatan 7 i Stockholm har blivit känd som Asplundrummet. Inredningen i sammanträdesrummet ? stolar, bord, skåp, textilier och belysning ? är bevarad nära sitt originalskick. Det är unikt att en nästan nittioårig komplett inredning är så intakt och rummet och dess inredning har rönt uppmärksamhet också utanför Sveriges gränser. Asplundrummet är inte bara ett nationellt kulturarv utan även ett internationellt.
