Description
The 14 villas have mostly a ground floor made of reinforced concrete. Some of the upper floors are cladded with wood. We do not know yet, which construction method was used to built the first floors. Some of the houses have flat roofs, so all houses with odd house numbers on the northern side of the street. The houses with even numbers on the opposite sideothers are equipped with gable roofs and the rather traditional facades cladded with wood on the first floor.
House No. 15 is Villa Dammann, one of Korsmo's famous buildings.

History
Built between 1930 and 1932 those villas in this street characterised the future modern architecture of Norway. The architect Arne Korsmo opened an architectural office with Sverre Aasland immediately after his Grand Tour. This residential area is therefore one of the first products of the knowledge he brought with him from Central, Southern and Western Europe.
