Repurposing old buildings is indeed a rewarding act not only to the residents but to the environment as well. With the great collaboration of 3 architects, a glass artist, and a painter, the Raman House + Studio is born. This one of a kind residence is a result from a repurposed abandoned old schoolhouse. The couple Ingegerd and artist Claes Soderquist bought the abandoned old schoolhouse at a very cheap price, for they are the only ones who showed interest to the said building. Clearing a few of the trees was done to allow sunlight to come in and the house interiors come in white color walls.
