Located on Stockholm’s waterfront between Södermalm and Gamla stan, Stockholm’s Old Town, the 13,000-sq-m development will have four connected volumes with spaces for exhibitions, lectures, workshops and cultural events.
A new terrace will be added in front of the existing building, with public spaces extending in front, on roof terraces and into the entrance level. The site had originally been earmarked for a larger office building.
Built on a wooden frame, the façade of the building will be made of reclaimed brick, referencing the neighbourhood’s other civic institutions.
The building and permanent exhibition are funded by the Erling-Persson Foundation, the Knut and Alice Wallenberg Foundation and the Nobel organisation.
Hanna Stjärne, Executive Director of the Nobel Foundation, said: “The new Nobel house will serve as an international symbol of knowledge – warm, welcoming and open to everyone.
“It will be a house for science, literature and peace, a power hub for what the Nobel Prizes represent and a source of inspiration not only for current visitors but also for future generations.”
Peter Wallenberg Jr, chair of Knut and Alice Wallenberg Foundation, said: “The Nobel Prize represents curiosity, courage and a long-term perspective – values that not only strengthen Swedish research and education but also make our country more attractive to the most talented researchers and students.”
Construction is due to begin in 2027. The centre is due to open in 2031, with permits submitted to the city and a detailed development plan in place.
