Equity
Although the target goal of Hammarby Sjostad is to
achieve a desired ratio of 50:50 percent rentals to
owner-occupied apartments, it has not been achieved
to date. Instead, social critics point to the fact that
Hammarby Sjostad is not proactively addressing the
existing problems of socio-economic segregation in
the city of Stockholm
Approaches to Architecture
and Site Design
Architectural Design Approach
Hammarby Sjstad is a modern, semi-open, block-
based city, with a combination of a closed and
traditional inner city with more modern planning.
Density mix is integrated with openness, waterfront
views, parks and sunlight.
The design is intentionally urban rather than suburban,
and follows standards for Stockholms inner city in terms
of :
street width 18meters
Block sizes 70x100m, density, and land use.
The scale of development varies from 4 to 5
storey buildings along Sickla canal and 6 to 8
storey buildings along the main corridors
Cont..
a new architectural style that responds to its specific
waterside context, promotes the best of contemporary
technology and follows modern architectural
principles of maximizing light, and views of the water
and green spaces
