OBELISKEN 29 | Claesson Koivisto Rune Architects

An apartment building constructed with handmade Danish bricks. Obelisken 29, is located on Södermalm in Stockholm. It consists of 20 penthouse apartments – some of them two storey – with terraces and balconies, added on top of the old roof of an existing 1960’s building which also received a revamped façade.
