Designed by Foster + Partners in collaboration with Berg Arkitektkontor for the City of Stockholm, the new face of Stockholm project covers an area of Stockholm adjacent to the navigation lock between the Baltic and the freshwater Lake Mälaren. Revealed at Slussen Masterplan public exhibition, the project will offer new public spaces, an accessible quayside, pedestrian and cycle routes, and a Water Square as the central feature.
Spencer de Grey, Head of Design at Foster + Partners comments:
“We are proud to be a part of this ambitious project to redefine this beating heart of Stockholm. The combination of a bold civic statement together with the repair of infrastructure that is critical to the future sustainability of the city promises a richer totality. With vastly improved access to the waterfront and generous amounts of new public space, the development will ensure that Slussen will become a popular civic focus for generations to come.â€
