Which qualities do Swedish people look for in their villas?

Abstract: Some would say today’s villas lacks interesting architecture. Little variation and frankly, uninteresting. In this thesis, investigations will be made towards figuring out if this is what the Swedish people want, or if given the possibility, they would pick something different from what is available and also, which qualities they look for in their home. This is what this thesis will look into. In order to answer this question, information needed to be obtained, information which was attained through a survey that was sent out to the Swedish people. And interviews that was sent to architects and house brokers in different parts of Sweden. The response rate was 221 answers from the people, 8 answers from the brokers and 9 answers from the architects. With these answers the result was divided into 5 groups to see if there was a difference according to the participants age. The result showed that the swedes think much alike when it comes to location of their house, but when it comes to their own home, the answers are much diverse even though some specifications are more appreciated than others.
