Resumen

Throughout the twenties, Gunnar Asplund, being unaware of any fashion or trend, had been one of the leading figures of Nordic Classicism in Sweden. However in 1930, his style would radicalize, influenced by the tenets of international style and functionalism. The Stockholm Exhibition 1930, whose design he assumed, needed to show the new situation caused by the changes in the industry and the arts within daily life and especially in the field of housing. His ambitious architectural proposal made the exhibition one of the most important in the history of architecture in Stockholm, establishing functionalism as the predominant style in Sweden.
