Gunnar Asplund’s zodiac sign is Virgo. According to astrologers, Virgos are always paying attention to the smallest details and their deep sense of humanity makes them one of the most careful signs of the zodiac. Their methodical approach to life ensures that nothing is left to chance, and although they are often tender, their heart might be closed for the outer world. This is a sign often misunderstood, not because they lack the ability to express, but because they won’t accept their feelings as valid, true, or even relevant when opposed to reason. The symbolism behind the name speaks well of their nature, born with a feeling they are experiencing everything for the first time.
Gunnar Asplund was born in the Year of the Rooster. Those born under the Chinese Zodiac sign of the Rooster are practical, resourceful, observant, analytical, straightforward, trusting, honest, perfectionists, neat and conservative. Compatible with Ox or Snake.
A representative of Nordic Classicism and the Swedish Grace movement, he also advocated for modernism; his work included the Stockholm Public Library.
He attended the Stockholm Free Architecture School. His earliest works included the Gothenburg Courthouse Extension building, begun in 1913 and completed in 1937, and a collaboration with fellow Architect Sigurd Lewerentz on the cemetery, Skogskyrkogården.
