German studio Dehlin Brattgård Arkitekter creates an immersive and futuristic small-scale exhibition space for the Swedish Center for Architecture and Design. The Stockholm-based institution has a series of lofty galleries and Boxen — the new studio gallery, is another edition that will allow and celebrate daring, boundary-pushing creativity.
The small-scale exhibition space occupies multiple levels and is described as "a robust machine for fast-changing, experimental exhibitions." The venue is crucial to an institution like this as it allows for a quick turnover, is cost-effective and will ultimately go a long way in helping with the progression of the field.
The small-scale exhibition space is tucked in within one of the ArkDes museum's existing halls and it is made predominantly out of steel which gives it an inarguable futuristic look.
