General information
The business district is located where Vasagatan and Sprängkullsgatan meet.
The original house contains the library and the large lecture hall, which has a prominent position in a round building in the best corner of the block. The reading room has a relationship with Asplund's city library in Stockholm and faces a large shop window towards the park opposite. The area where the buildings are located is of national interest for the conservation of the cultural environment.
The part of the School of Economics that was completed in 1995 has won both the Kasper Salin prize (1995) and the Per & Alma Olsson's fund for good architecture (1996) with the following justification:
"The new building completed the School of Economics into a fully and clearly present block in the city. The inner courtyard is beautiful, open to all, comprehensible to all.”
