De Gamla Kullager Fabrikerna- The Old Ball Bearing Factories

Proposed

On the site of an old ball bearing factory the redevelopment seeks to provide 1000 new homes, new workspace and retail creating a unique district that complements the redevelopment of Gamlestaden
District Bearing is a former factory complex. Its original purpose was the production
of ball bearings for export across the world. The redevelopment seeks to create
a unique district that adds, complements and strengthens the current urban
development in the wider area of Gamlestaden. Notable historic buildings will be
retained and refurbished alongside the intervention of contemporary mixed-use
buildings including 1000 new homes. The pandemic and the normalisation of home
working meant that colleagues, collaborators, and the client felt they were able to
communicate effectively and equally regardless on which country they were based.
