SeARCH Wins Urban Renewal Competition in Stockholm

SeARCH has won an invited, international competition for the urban renewal of Marievik. Their winning proposal, STA(CK)HOLM plans to transform an area along one of central Stockholm’s main access roads, opposite the island of Södermalm and facing a new bridge by Norman Foster, into a futuristic sustainable neighborhood.

Claiming “inside is the new outside,” the scheme integrates a complex of glasshouses within an adaptable landscape of “beautiful public spaces.” Capable of hosting a variety of multifunctional winter and summer gardens, SeARCH aims to “extend the outdoor season to almost a full year” by offering families the option to open their homes up to the landscape during almost any season.  

In close cooperation with the real estate agency AMF and the City of Stockholm, SeARCH will start with the urban planning procedures.
