We want to congratulate our friends at Liljewall Architects for being awarded Best Architecture 2021 at the Swedish Design Awards by RUM for their work at Kunskapshuset in Gällivare!
The building of Kunskapshuset is an essential part of the vast structural transformation in Gällivare, Sweden, and the result is a visually strong building that stands out but at the same time does not disrupt the architectural integrity of the city.
As a part of the project, Liljewall Architects designed the Gällivare bench, a modular bench system that Nola proudly developed. The bench will soon be a part of Nolas ordinary assortment of furniture.

On Tuesday, Nola’s Founder and Head of Design, Agneta Stake, participated in a panel discussion with the theme “History and Future”. The panel discussion was part of the event Inside Swedish Design and can be seen here.
Make sure to view Inside Swedish Design (virtually or safely IRL) at Stockholms Auktionsverk during Stockholm Design Week. We’ll be showing news connected to outdoor offices and workspaces with designs by Superlab, Fredrik Mattson, Mats Aldén and Nina Jobs.
