Gimme Shelter

Gimme Shelter, conceived by Swedish architect Emelie Holmberg, is an extraordinary self-build project nestled in the pristine woodlands of Vaddo, Sweden. Born from Emelie's vision of a flexible, remote lifestyle, the concept evolved into a low-cost, two-structure dwelling, addressing changing living patterns influenced by the pandemic. The 32 sq m living unit and the 10 sq m bedroom unit are linked by a sheltered outdoor space, seamlessly blending indoor and outdoor living. Large windows offer panoramic views, and sliding wooden panels draw inspiration from Swedish barns and Japanese architecture. Emelie, deeply involved in the project, sees Gimme Shelter as a prototype for future housing, offering modular solutions through her company of the same name, envisioning a Lego-like system for customizable living spaces.
