Stockholm - Linköbing

Housing by international architects - and frontrunner in climate initiatives

Sweden's former Prime Minister Stefan Löfven has pledged that Sweden will be Europe’s most sustainable country. In Stockholm you will see how authorities and stakeholders in the construction industry have worked towards a more climate friendly environment or the last 10-12 years, from mobility to energy and waste solutions. A genuine housing boom has taken place in at least eight urban areas around the centre, with 6-8,000 people relocating to these districts each month.
