Completed in 2018

The Church of Sweden Administrative Building, located in Sundbyberg in northern Stockholm, was developed by the Church of Sweden (Svenska Kyrkan). The primary contractor for the project was AB Oljibe, and the architectural design was handled by Wingårdh Arkitektkontor. Initially slated for completion in 2017, the project was finalized in 2018.

Pre-assembled CLT Components

This construction project is notable for its use of cross-laminated timber (CLT). Unlike traditional on-site methods, this project involved the factory pre-assembly of wall elements, including channels for pipes, wires, air ducts, and built-in furniture. These pre-assembled components were then transported to the construction site for final assembly. This method not only resulted in a quicker build time but also enhanced quality control.

90% CLT Interior Finish

One of the key features of the building is its emphasis on using CLT for 90% of the interior finish of the timber slabs. This provided the building with a cozy and distinctive aesthetic. The excellent physical and mechanical qualities of CLT make it a highly suitable material that is increasingly being used for the construction of tall buildings, some exceeding 70 meters in height.
