To the west of Furulund was an area known as "the Plush Town". The residences in this area were of a higher standard than the workers' housing. This reflects the social hierarchy that characterised many industrial societies at the beginning of the last century.

At one time the villa was referred to as "the Forfang Villa", named after the engineer Arne Forfang. It was originally built for a family, but in the 1950s, it was annexed with a smaller structure and divided into two. A garden encircles the villa. It is two-storied and has a rectangular roof, emphasised by the hipped roof that is covered with square-shaped roof slates. The building has a closed and reserved style, with neatly executed details. The building reflects the style of the architect Erling Nielsen.

Architect Erling Nielsen's (1877-1943) style characterises several of the buildings at Furulund and other places in Sulitjelma dating from 1915 to 1920. One could characterise his style from this period as richly detailed panel architecture. The houses for Furulund represents a national style inspired by 18th century panelled town houses and the Nordic Neo-Baroque style, which was popular during this time. These buildings had a rectangular form, were often two-storied, and usually had hipped roofs. He had a unique, often fanciful and ornate style. For instance, the window shutters and the gable boards found on this villa. Several buildings at Furulund reflect his style. The housing for the workers have a more rigid style. This reflects the ideals of neoclassicism, a style that was popular in Norway and elsewhere in Europe at this time. He designed many residences with four flats (intended to house workers). These structures are situated at many various places in Sulitjelma for example at Jacobsbakken.
