After much anticipation, ArkDes has finally reopened its doors to visitors on Skeppsholmen in Stockholm. Among the highlights of the permanent exhibition is Bill Post by Broberg & Ridderstråle.
Described by the museum as a "A Shining Exclamation Mark," Bill Post illuminates the grand hall where objects from the collection are temporarily displayed in a new exhibition. The collection is seen as a living archive, with objects rotating over time to showcase how Sweden has been shaped and transformed over the last 150 years.
Designed by Broberg & Ridderstråle in 2013, Bill Post is a wooden-clad poster column, meant to serve as a public space where anyone can post, comment, and engage in urban life.
With this, a long-awaited stage and meeting place for design and architecture is once again set. The museum offers free admission throughout 2024—don't miss out!

The Malmö City Urban Development Award 2024 goes to Hyllievång Park. A big round of applause to the City of Malmö’s Property and Streets Department and the landscape architects at Plot Studio.

In May, it was confirmed that Nola has been selected as a supplier for the nationwide framework agreement with HBV within Park and Urban Environment. The agreement runs until April 7, 2026, with an option for a 24-month extension. The agreement applies to the Swedish market.
With buds blooming, sunshine, and even the recent interest rate cut, there are plenty of reasons to feel optimistic. Let's raise a glass to the good things, celebrate our unity, and look forward to the journey ahead.
