Every KS project tells the story of its essential elements: Life, Society, Fabric, Form, Environment.

Circular approach and material reuse

The transformation of Gjuteriet in Malmö, designed by Kjellander Sjöberg for Varvsstaden, has been completed. Focused on the intensive re-use of repurposed materials, the project demonstrates how existing buildings can be reimagined based on circular principles. Formerly a ruin, the distinctive building has been given a vibrant new life as an active and social new urban place telling a multifaceted story about the port’s rich maritime heritage.

Such landscape also introduces a relaxed soundscape forming a playful, active link between the Havnesletten plain and the harbour.In collaboration with: @lyttarch_
