Summary: "Skönhet för alla: Fyra uppsatser" by Ellen Key is a collection of essays written in the late 19th century. The work explores the concept of beauty in everyday life, particularly focusing on its presence in homes and how it can be achieved regardless of one's socioeconomic status. Key emphasizes that beauty is not merely a luxury for the wealthy but an essential aspect of life that can enrich the experiences of everyone. At the start of the collection, the author introduces the theme of beauty as a fundamental human need, aligning it with the satisfaction of basic necessities like food and shelter. She articulates that each individual yearns for beauty, which should be expressed in their living spaces. Key critiques the excessive ornamentation often found in contemporary interiors, advocating instead for simplicity and functionality that reflect true beauty. She argues for the creation of spaces that fulfill their intended purposes while also being aesthetically pleasing, providing a guide for readers on how to achieve a harmonious balance between utility and beauty in their own homes.
