During the years of development in the 60s and 70s the need for new housing in Sweden arose. Sweden was going to be the most modern country in the world. This period has later been called “the time of the big programmes”. One of the parts in this building of a welfare society was a large policy of building politics with few counterparts in history. This large scale production of new housing required new systems of production, planning and organization.The housing blocks which was the result of this and that today represents 25% of the total infrastructure in Sweden, is called “the million programme”.The goal was to solve the severe problem of lack of housing and during a short time build a one million apartments to improve the standard of living. The majority of dwellings were to be apartments but many villa neighborhoods were also counted among “ the million programme”.During the time of the million program approximately 1 000 600 dwellings were built. This programme has come to represent the goals of that period and the esthetic visions. As a consequence a lot of old houses that no longer held the acquired standards were torn down.So even though “the million programme” was completed we are still in need of apartments in those areas.Therefore we have chosen to analyse and explore the possibilities of expansion of existing buildings on a location in Stockholm. The reason for this project is to analyse, organize and suggest the best course of action to take during an expansion of these apartments. These expansions will be roof apartments and we will look into the possibilities. We will consider architecture and construction on these buildings.During the course of this project we have become convinced that by using the construction methods that we have analyzed and concluded in our project, you will be able to increase the effectiveness of expansions on buildings of “the million program”.
