Spring has arrived to Stockholm & it’s such a nice feeling to wake up to this green view outside the window.

Saint Claire church
The Church of Saint Clare is located in central Stockholm, just 100 m from Stockholm’s central railway & subway stations. It’s a Lutheran church, built in 1572-1590 on the site of an older church, dating back to the 13th century.
The tower rises majestically above the neighbourhood with its Gothic & distinctive silhouette. It’s just one step into a quiet, sacred atmosphere in the middle of the city noise.
Wildlife architecture
This is entrance building to Eriksberg wildlife Park in Sweden – Scandinavia’s largest, designed by Sandellsandberg. The building was designed to provide visitors with a strong visual landmark where none previously existed.
The facade is clad in the iconic copper red Swedish colour & consists of vertical wooden slats of varying lengths arranged in curved shapes – creating the illusion of fabric draped around the structure.
Residential
Ting1 is a residential building in Örnsköldsvik, Sweden, designed by Gert Wingårdh & were ready for occupancy in 2013.
The facades of the lower ten floors are clad with glazed ceramics & the top floor in painted sheet metal. Facades, roofs & undersides of balconies are all colored in eight shades of red, yellow & green.
The ceramic tiles are consistently 60 x 60 in size, which has partly determined the placement of windows & balconies. 78 glazed balconies protrude from the four facades of the square building, to the 51 residential apartments.
