Leif Grung: Søre van der Weldes vei 4, ca 1934

This is one of my Grung favourites. It’s situated two houses from where i lived myself. It’s just four houses away from where Leif lived himself (look below)  – in the  quartier of Bergen called Paradis.  Between 1928 and 1945 he designed and raised around 40 Grung houses in this area.  His own vision was  200 houses – which his death made impossible.

An amazing construction made of betong. Vaksdal Flour Mill. Situated in the midst of one of the deepest fjords of Norway (Look below).  Designed by architect Grung in 1944 – a few months before he commited suicide.  (Oil painting by Leif Grung)
