Naturum is a visitor center located in connection with several of Sweden’s national parks and nature reserves.
The Swedish Environmental Protection Agency's mission is to promote a
sustainable society. A part of this work is the development of visitor
centers in important natural areas, known as Naturum (a play on the
words nature and room). About 30 have been built since the 1970s, in
recent years, with increasingly evident architectural ambitions.
The book focuses on 13 of the major visitor centers: from Stenshuvud in
Skåne to the Great Sjöfallet in Lapland. They have been documented with
nearly 150 photographs, recently taken by Åke E:son Lindman, and the
book also includes a large amount of drawing materials.
