Our plan is to develop the area around the Kristiine shopping centre by building new apartments, office premises and more services – all closely related to the infrastructure of the shopping centre and forming a unified community.
Planning and design phase

The Kristiine centre is located in the “main traffic artery” of Tallinn which means excellent access by all modes of transport – train, bus, trolley and car. We aim to further develop the near surroundings of the centre as a multifunctional urban area and connect it even better with public transport hubs. Development plans include mixed-use possibilities to be developed on the present outside car parking area. Densification possibilities and final land use will be determined in the new city plan.
The development will make the area even more attractive for residents, workers and service providers. This will help to reduce the car use in Tallinn, by bringing together workplaces, housing, trade, leisure opportunities and high-quality public transport which decreases the load on traffic.

COMPLETED DEVELOPMENT PROJECT, Gothenburg, Sweden
Opened in 2018, Mölndal Galleria is a community centre that focuses on daily necessities, services and a generous food and beverage offering. The neighbouring library and several health care services adds to the attractiveness of the place and ensures a high footfall. Located only 8 minutes by train from central Gothenburg, the centre is adjacent to Gothenburg’s largest hub for public transportation with trains, buses and trams.
The design is placed at the heart of the experience, creating a feeling of a ‘city within the city’ with a variety of first-class materials. The galleria is deeply anchored in the existing city structure with connections to the surrounding streets, squares and bridge. This creates an empowering interaction where the new galleria contributes to the city as a living place for retail and meetings.
With its retail premises of 24,000 square meters, Mölndal Galleria was developed in close partnership with the municipality of Mölndal and plays a central role in the major transformation and modernisation of the city of Mölndal which is being re-developed and densified with new housing, offices and commerce as well as refurbished streets and squares.
Mölndal Galleria is the first shopping centre in Western Sweden to be certified with the international standard of BREEAM Very Good.

Awarded Best city district shopping centre eight years in a row by Evimetrix.
Winner of 2010 Planning Prize by Architects Sweden.
Motivation by Architects Sweden:
The 2010 Planning Prize goes to the City of Stockholm for a high-class urban transformation, complete with functional integration and the realised vision of secure, pleasing and living urban spaces. An excellent example of the solution of an urgent planning task in the context of sustainable urban development.
Persistent and purposive endeavour by the City of Stockholm with Liljeholmstorget has turned a run-down, empty square into a living township with housing, a diversity of functions and a wealth of public and commercial services. Round an important node the City has created an attractive venue for everyday needs. A modern station solution with high functional, social and ambient qualities enhances the attraction of the place. Important components are the complete integration of the nodal point with the body of the township, with day-lit metro platforms directly adjoining bus services and within close proximity of the Tvärbanan (Transverse Line). The creation of Liljeholmstorget would not have been possible without high-quality planning work and a unification of forces by the City authorities, the transport mandators and other clients.
