The sense of community and neighbourhood was central when the multi-family houses in Brf Ramselyckan took shape outside Partille in Gothenburg. Here, Okidoki architects have designed 8 Svanen-labeled timber houses with high sustainability ambitions. The houses, clearly inspired by red barns and classic wooden houses with verandas, seamlessly blend into the surrounding nature and environment.
The Hjorthagen sofa offers seating and the opportunity for both relaxation and conversations between neighbours in the communal courtyard. Its classic design also adds a sense of homeliness to the area.
This park bench, like the table, armchairs and seats in the Hjorthagen family, carry on the Swedish tradition of painted furniture. Painted in alkyd oil enamel, this bench is durable enough for year-round use outdoors. An unpainted version of the bench is also available in oiled oak, which showcases the natural beauty of wood grain.
