More information
Architect Bertil and Edna Fridhagen moved back to Bodafors in 1937. They then moved into a villa on Parkgatan 3, which was remodelled to suit the family's needs. The home's various functional divisions for socialising, work, and rest are described in an article in the magazine Svenska hem i ord och bilder in 1949. The present sideboard, which the family believes is likely unique, stood in Bertil's workspace in the large living room.
