1	The influence of Scandinavian architecture in the Czech Republic	Especially in the second half of the 1940s and 1950s, thousands of prefabricated wooden houses were built in the Czech Republic. Some of them were purchased from Finland. Although other European companies designed others, the term Finnish became common not only in the Czech Republic. This research aims first to determine what kind of houses they are —i.e., who designed them — and then to explain why they are called Finnish even though they are not from Finland. So far, we have created a dataset containing the locations of these houses, the dates of their construction, and their basic classification. In the next phase, we will divide them into categories based on external visual elements, then conduct document research to gather more information.	ongoing	create a description of one category of house and find all locations where this house is located edit the description for book publishing requirements and possibly prepare additional chapters as agreed	open to more	book with ISBN in Czech
