Mobilitetshus Solkvarteret

Kintsugi is the Japanese word for the tradition of repairing broken pottery with gold so that the crack helps to make the broken piece more beautiful.

In the Solkvarteret mobility building, we have decorated the horizontal cracks between the parking lots with an ornate metal grid. The area between the grid is covered with a bottle-green facade with active solar cells that make the building self-sufficient in energy for much of the year. On the ground floor there is a larger room, bicycle parking with changing rooms and showers, and a delivery center for e-commerce and grocery bags. The mobility house is built together with the Fabriken office building.

The Solar Quarter has been awarded the Skåne Solar Award 2022.
