C.F. Møller Architects have unveiled designs for a new residential area
in Stockholm, Sweden, based on a vision for a sustainable urban lifestyle for
modern city dwellers. The residential quarter is part of the current master
plan for Årstafältet, which focuses on transforming former green peripheral
areas of the city into diverse and vibrant neighbourhoods with an
environmentally sound and socially sustainable profile.
The neighbourhood consists of seven individual buildings of varying
character, height and facades that are centred on a courtyard. The courtyard is
designed with green, south-facing terraces, and allows for urban agriculture
and can be regarded as a ‘pantry’ with locally produced goods. In the node
where the local main street, 'park pier' and promenade meet, there will be a
small public square with restaurants. The project is expected to be built
between 2015 and 2017.
