Cederhusen will be one of the world's largest wooden housing blocks in an inner city environment. The frame of the second block, Bologna grew at a record speed of one floor a week. Here you can see how it went:
Cederhusen are built in a densely populated area in the center of Stockholm with little space for transport and unloading.
The direct deliveries from Setra's factory in Långshyttan, Dalarna county, just two hours away, were a contributing factor to the frame being able to be erected so quickly. The building elements were loaded in the correct order already at the factory and assembled on site directly upon arrival in Stockholm.
Comprises: 236 apartments (1–5 rooms) and eight retail units.
Location: Hagastaden, central Stockholm
Built in: 2020–2024
