• Skanska - 20.10.2020

  Did you know that the city-center of Kiruna is moving and that Skanska Sweden is currently building the city's newest landmark while it's happening? 200 km north of the Polar Circle Hotel Kiruna is coming to life - a 13-story design inspired by Sweden's tallest mountain, Kebnekaise. Its construction is part of the urban relocation that is taking place in Kiruna due to the city’s long history of mining. As a result of the mining, and the mine's expansion, it’s causing deformations in the ground, making the city move about three km east. “Building in an arctic climate is a challenge alone. The winters are long and there are sometimes periods with snowstorms and up to minus 30 degrees. This is also a “once in a lifetime project”, as we are a part of the historic move of a full city center,” says Bernt Lundstedt, Business Developer. #construction #hotel #kiruna

  Glimmering like a gemstone. Juvelen (“the jewel” in Swedish) will most likely be the first thing you see if you were to arrive to Uppsala’s train station in Sweden. Created together with architecture firm, Utopia Arkitekter, these 10 000 square meters are adorned in metal cartridges with light strings, giving it that golden shimmer. You won’t find this color on any color charts. Containing tiny metal fragments, the paint was created specifically for this jewel of a building. What other shiny buildings come to mind?
