“Etaget” is a housing infill project situated in the western part of Kungsholmen which adds a lot of character to the neighborhood. The architecture is based on blocks piled on top of each other. The buildings surround a green and lush shaded garden with private patios for the residents. To maximize space and functionality, bicycles are stored in two-storey bicycle racks with a green biodiversity roof. The building varies in height, from 9 to 13 storey, and the roof landscape is characterized by wind-tolerant and xerophytic plants. The common rooftop terraces also have an orangery and gathering place for meetings and celebrations. The private parts of the terraces have secluded open air showers and mini pergolas in the gardens.
