Skanska to construct office and parking complex in Skövde, Sweden for approx. EUR 29.9 million

Skanska has secured a contract with municipal company Kreativa Hus Skövde AB to construct a state-of-the-art office building and an adjacent parking garage in central Skövde, Sweden. The project, valued at approximately SEK 340 million (approximately EUR 29.9 million), will be included in Skanska’s order bookings for Sweden in the first quarter of 2025.

The planned seven-story office building will encompass a gross area of 11,100 square meters and feature modern, flexible office spaces designed for efficiency. At the heart of the building will be an atrium, envisioned as a central gathering place that fosters collaboration and interaction among occupants. Additionally, the project will incorporate an innovative energy-sharing solution that allows the newly constructed building to exchange electricity and cooling with neighboring properties, enhancing overall energy efficiency. The development will also see the transformation of an existing parking lot into a vibrant public square, further enhancing the urban landscape.

The accompanying four-story parking garage will span a gross area of 4,500 square meters and will be integrated with the office building. To align with Skanska’s sustainability goals, the construction will utilize climate-reduced concrete for the structural frame, while the use of steel will be minimized to reduce the project’s environmental impact.

Construction is set to commence soon, with completion expected in the first half of 2027.
