Amber and Uffe - House flippers with a passion for transformation
Amber and Uffe have made house flipping a lifestyle. In 33 years, they have renovated over 20 houses, many of which were dilapidated shacks transformed into architectural gems.
In season 7, we followed their work on an eternite house in Västra Klappe – a project that blended recycling and modern solutions in an impressive way. Today, they’ve taken on a 1965 farmhouse by the sea, where they plan to live ‘forever’… maybe.

Johannes and Åsa - Revenge of the Gabion Walls
When Johannes and Åsa built their plus-energy house in the first season of Husdrömmar, it was a groundbreaking project. Family and friends helped with the iconic gabion walls – large baskets filled with stone.
But now Johannes reveals that he had to rebuild the walls himself to get them perfect. Today, the couple dreams of a new building project on the Scanian plains.
Closure
This year’s House Dreams retrospective shows that a dream is rarely easy, but always worth fighting for. From historic house moves to modern architectural dreams, each project tells a story of passion, courage and perseverance.
