Urban regeneration Volvo Powertrain

One of our latest projects has been an urban regeneration masterplan for part of central Skövde where Volvo Powertrain is located.

Industrial activity first started on the site in 1868 and the site has a clear industrial character today. The aim of the work was to propose ways for how the site could be more effectively integrated with the city centre and to identify place identity aspects that could be used in the future development of the site. The masterplan work included new public realm, private realm, pedestrian links, street design, volume studies, proposed transformation of existing building use and densification. The work was carried out in a team with planning architects from Metria. The client was Skövde kommun and the work was carried out in cooperation with Volvo.
