Stark White Townhouse in Sweden Stands in Defiant Contrast with Its Stoic Neighbors

We've featured the work of <a href="http://www.eldingoscarson.com/">Elding Oscarson</a> before, and just like his mind-bending <a href="http://inhabitat.com/elding-oscarsons-deceives-with-his-dilapidated-buildings-turned-tricked-out-trompe-l%e2%80%99oeil-studio/">No Picnic renovation,</a> this bright white townhouse is a piece of architecture that challenges its surroundings. At obvious odds with its stoic Landskrona neighbors in Sweden, the home stands out like a sore thumb and makes a definite mark on its otherwise sleepy neighborhood. Despite having only 125 square meters to work with, the designer was able to satisfy the homeowners' request for plenty of wall space on which to hang their art by building vertically, while natural lighting and insulated glass serve to reduce the building's energy consumption.

The stark white townhouse stands at odds with its stoic neighbors in Sweden

Despite a tiny footprint, giving the home 3 levels expands its limited space

Which is crested by a rooftop courtyard

Plenty of windows ensure loads of natural lighting

And the glazed windows ensure its energy efficiency

We love this small but bold project located in Sweden

The plans demonstrate the clever techniques that make the most out of a small space.

It's a standout all right!
