The new building comprises approximately 10,800 square meters of gross area spread over eight floors above ground and one basement level. Among other things, it houses a new main entrance, two auditoriums, student services, café, offices and student workplaces.
As part of Akademiska Hus' sustainability work, materials with a high climate impact, such as marble floors, limestone façades and granite stone, have been reused to be reused in other construction projects. The marble floor from the old building, for example, will be used for a footbridge in the new building for the School of Business, Economics and Law.
The project started in 2020 but officially started construction in 2021 and the building is estimated to be completed in 2027.
