Already today, Kvillepiren has begun to be populated by Gothenburgers through the well-attended sauna and the surrounding area. The fully developed proposal will make the pier accessible to a larger number of people and the pier will be populated during almost all hours of the day.
With several hundred studios and the Jubilee Park with several alternatives for swimming, the area will be attractive and lively. An obvious place to hang out with proximity to the center and a good relationship to the water.

The neighborhood has taken many forms before it landed in the final design. The units are inspired by the harbor and its industrialism. The units flirt a bit with harbor containers in their expression, but there is a tactility in the wood material and a playfulness in the vibrant color that softens the design.

A sustainable goal is to choose to live smaller and gather more people in the same place. The units are compact but efficient and the density allows for shared facilities such as bike stations, a mobile and automated grocery store, etc. Another sustainable feature is that only a few parking spaces are located in the area. People will be able to get there easily by public transport or bicycle. The units are built with a wooden frame and facade, a renewable material that we are happy to use.

A nice detail is the quite spacious lofts. Raising the bed with a slightly lower ceiling height frees up space underneath, making the whole plan more efficient. The high window section in the facade brings light to the loft and when lying in bed you get a view of the area. This means nice views of the water for many of the different studio types.
