Norwegian Wood is the first book on Selmer's life and architecture, presenting 14 of her beautiful wooden cabins and houses in detailed descriptions, plans and newly commissioned colour photography as well as archival images. Located at the Norwegian coast or in the forest and mountains, Selmer's wooden cabins are a blend of local building traditions with modern conveniences. Her attention to the environment as well as to the practical needs of her clients is evident in the thoughtful design of these buildings.
Now the exhibition has been translated into German, and has a 4 month long stay in Hittisau, Austria. The Womens' Museum in Hittisau was founded in 2000, and is the only one of its kind in Austria. The museum's aim is to help uncover and emphasize womens history, activities and capacities.
