LOS ANGELES , May 19, 2025 (Industry Intelligence Inc.) –
A former industrial area in Sickla, Stockholm, is being transformed into a groundbreaking wooden city development by Atrium Ljungberg, marking a significant shift in Swedish construction due to revised building regulations, the UK Express reported on May 9. The project, touted as the world's largest mass timber initiative, employs sustainable materials like glulam and cross-laminated timber to construct residential and community spaces over 25 hectares. The innovative approach not only creates a cleaner, quieter construction environment but also promises psychological benefits for future residents, with the first buildings set for completion in 2025 and an additional 2,000 homes planned for 2027.
