Building located in the middle of a vast redevelopment project for the site formerly occupied by Stockholm’s South railway station. The main building is semicircular, forming a plaza with a diameter of 180 m (600’), accompanied by two blocks on the South side and a further three blocks on the avenue leading off to the west. The 8-storey complex includes a total of 310 apartments. The lines of the façade have considerable subtlety and purity, deriving from the Nordic classical tradition. The project also served to introduce Sweden to techniques of precast architectonic concrete more sophisticated than anything previously seen in the country. The program includes 310 apartments, underground car park, retail arra and offices.
