Swedish Design Movement: Kjellander Sjöberg

At the architecture firm Kjellander Sjöberg, shipyard ruins are converted into modern office spaces and London’s derelict industrial areas into waterfront neighbourhoods with social ambitions. One of the founders is Stefan Sjöberg, who designs tomorrow’s rooms and cities with demolition metal, a ruler and dreams.

Kjellander Sjöberg is one of eight appointed flag-bearers by the Swedish Design Movement.
