Provenance

Villa Engkvist, building contractor Olle Engkvist. The villa was designed by architect Sven Markelius for the Engkvist couple in 1929.
The house was intended as the couple's summer residence. During the 1950s, Markelius designed an extension that was used as the couple's library. In connection with the expansion, the Engkvist couple moved permanently to the house and lived there for the rest of their lives.
