More about Carl Westman
Carl Westman was a Swedish architect and interior designer. Westman started his own architectural practice in 1897 and during the first years he designed private villas and furniture inspired by the design language of the Arts and Crafts movement. Westman's largest and most famous work is Stockholm's Town Hall (1911–15). He also designed the Röhsska museum building in Gothenburg (1910–1914). Westman was an early adopter of the National Romantic Style, but turned later to the neo-classical style of the 1920s.
