Ystad Sandskog : En socialhistorisk analys av den privata rekreationsarkitekturens utveckling, mellan 1850 och 1940

Sammanfattning: This thesis is a case study that analyses the seaside resort Ystad Sandskog and its private architecture between 1850 and 1940. The multitude is evident in the area's architecture. The architectural development is analysed with the use of a social historical perspective, including class and hegemony. Regional as well as national affective factors are used in the analysis. Aside from the social aspects, architectural ideological developments, general development of the seaside resort and the area's committee with its prescriptions are all factors considered. By dividing the development in four different chronological phases, which all represents a certain architectural expression exemplified by a selection of buildings and the social class that it accompanies, a culmination in the architectural structural development of Sandskogen is shown. The culmination is formed by the factors mentioned above and on many levels a cyclic lapse gathers the analysis.
