Claes Caldenby has an interest in the history of ideas of architecture but also in its wider social and cultural context. His ambition is that his research should be relevant and readable to practising architects as well as to a broader public and not only to the research community. His field of research has been mainly 20th C architecture, starting with studies of Soviet 1920s architecture and later on focusing on Swedish post-war architecture, including both building design and urban design.
