Öhman's research explores how summer cottages shape environmental consciousness and contribute to sustainability narratives. She examines place-based identities, cultural preservation, and human-environment interactions through historical and contemporary studies. Her work bridges environmental psychology, cultural geography, and heritage studies.
Her published works include analyses of summer cottage traditions as time capsules, the paradox of idyllic cottage life (environmental benefits vs. conflicts), and the role of place narratives in understanding nature's contribution to people. She has presented at conferences like Nordic 2.0 and beyond (2025) and contributed to public discussions on seasonal polarization and environmental storytelling.
