Villa Ekarne, Early 20th century residential building in Djurgården, Sweden.
The exterior of Villa Ekarne features dark brown wooden shingles, granite base, terraces, and green glazed tiles covering the roof on an elevated plot.
Designed by architect Ragnar Östberg in 1905 and completed in 1907, the villa served as home to publisher Torsten Laurin and his extensive art collection.
The architectural design of Villa Ekarne combines National Romanticism with Anglo-Saxon influences derived from the Arts and Crafts movement of the period.
Located at Singelbacken 21 in Djurgården, visitors can observe the villa exterior while walking from Skansen or ABBA Museum toward Rosendals Trädgård.
From 2007 to 2019, Villa Ekarne functioned as the residence of the German Ambassador, marking its status in diplomatic relations.
