Challenge

Enköping is known for being ”the most central town in Sweden”. With its location close to lake Mälaren and Stockholm, Uppsala and Västerås within commuting distance, the area is popular for everyone who wants to combine career and leisure time. Thanks to its strategic position, Enköping is also the home for the Command and Control Regiment.

Solution

Älvdansen is a new district near the railway station in Enköping. Through innovative and carefully executed urban development strategies, the area is varied and will, when fully developed, include about 800 apartments, a care facility and a school.

Result

We’ve developed a varied neighborhood where the surrounding nature is part of the experience. With the city center and commuter train at walking distance, Älvdansen is the perfect residential area for everyone.
