Valpen consultation open

The Valpen 3 scheme consultation is open until 7th August and has been featured in the local newspaper Eskilstuna-Kuriren. The project, being developed by Kjellander Sjöberg in collaboration with Kruhsberg Fastigheter and Urbio, is located in the ‘Väster’ district in central Eskilstuna and will deliver housing, offices, shops, restaurants, a hotel and elderly care. It is designed with a wide array of façade expressions, varied massing and heights to respond to the richness and diversity of the surrounding culturally valuable historic environment. Relocating the existing Postnord’s facilities, the proposal comprises three new blocks, aligned with the council’s vision for the ‘Väster’ district, to create a vibrant, integrated neighbourhood and an attractive gateway to Eskilstuna.

What can we do right here, right now? (Hope from Wood blog article)

The Museum of Finnish Architecture has published a blog article written by Stefan Sjöberg, based on his lecture ‘Adaptive Use: How to use the already built as a resource’ given in November 2021 as a part of the Hope from Wood Discussion Series. The text stresses the importance of immediate action and attempts to address the climate crisis in the everyday activities. It offers reasoning regarding challenges and possibilities through highlighting essential principles for recycling and resource-conscious construction, presenting KS’s Gjuteriet transformation project as an example. Embracing the utilisation of the existing and striving to do as little as possible that may harm our planet, the article introduces a methodology that promotes projects that are fundamentally sustainable.

‘The choice of materials for any new construction must be based on what is available locally to minimise impact on the climate. This intrinsically defines a vocabulary and a tectonic language, a format and framework of specific conditions, rather than giving a total freedom for one’s vision. More ethics, less aesthetics.’

Hagastaden Design Code

The City of Stockholm has published a new Design Code for Hagastaden East, a rapidly developing district where KS, in collaboration with Humlegården, has developed a residential block inspired by the classical 19th century urban typology and the traditional brick architecture of Vasastaden. Previously dominated by unused land and infrastructure, the area on the border between Stockholm and Solna is being transformed into a green vibrant neighbourhood.

The masterplan proposal for Hagastaden East was presented in a public hearing for review in Q4 2021 and the development is expected to be completed by 2030.

Villa Visuri featured in Residence magazine

Villa Visuri, drawn by Kjellander Sjöberg in 2017, has been featured in the September issue of the Residence Magazine. The villa is located on the fringe of Gävle archipelago, designed to work both as a home for the family as well as a beautiful environment to take photographs of interior products by the family-owned business. The point of departure was the unique location of the site. The clear and simple architecture of two connected building volumes in cedar wood around an L-shaped courtyard, discretely placed in the topography, is intended as a contrast to the pristine nature. The building and the courtyard face the sea to the east, providing a view over the archipelago. The form, sightlines and vistas connect the interior spaces to the surroundings.

Residence magazine, no 8, 2020, p. 98 – 110
