I love Northern European modern architecture and paged through threads for hours last night looking for photos of low-rise buildings.

If anyone has nice photos of low-rise buildings (preferably finished and not proposed), share them with us. It seems to make sense to group them together.

The best cluster of modern low-rises in Oslo is found on Aker Brygge - a former ship yard that was transformed into an urban oasis in the 1980s. I am sure there are better pictures out there somewhere on the internet.
