Type specific Would 'type-specific room description' fit the context?
Charlesp (asker) Sep 14, 2010:
fortunately so!
George Hopkins Sep 14, 2010:
Not an unusual situation for a translator!
Charlesp (asker) Sep 14, 2010:
Thanks George. yes, the Asker should provide more information - but the Asker doesn't have it, and that is the problem here. So these suggestions, from those who have run into this word before, are very helpful. Thanks.
George Hopkins Sep 14, 2010:
Thereof typical. The Asker should perhaps give us more information.
Chris Says Bye Sep 14, 2010:
This is way outside my area of expertise but typrum suggests to me some kind of *standard* room, and the beskrivning would be specifications

Room-by-room specification of interior building materials

I don't think there is one word for this in English.

In addition to building materials, the materials could include appliances, bathroom accessories, etc.

Or: relevant room description
Peer comment(s):

disagree SwedEng (X) : If you read any of these descriptions, they don't seem to describe typical rooms but specific rooms and the typrumsbeskrivning is quite a detailed list of what is to be included as an integral part of each specified room.

What descriptions are you referring to and how do you know so much about them? According to the Discussion the Asker is unable to provide such information.

description of each room

Maybe it's as simple as that?
