Snäckan 8 has reached a major completion milestone, with all principal façade and roofing works now fully finalized ✅🏢
🔴⚫️A striking new addition to central Stockholm, the project features nearly 10,000 m² of façade solutions shaping its bold architectural identity. KG Constructions Group completed 4,668 m² of unitised curtain walling, 4,373 m² of stick curtain walling, and 695 m² of glass roof structures.
The façade combines natural limestone in three finishes, bespoke rosy gold stainless steel details, anodized aluminium, and expansive glazing systems — creating a timeless appearance that changes beautifully throughout the day.
A key milestone was the installation of 79 Jumbo façade elements out of 495 total units. Each measured 4,800 x 3,600 mm and weighed approximately 2,100 kg, requiring exceptional precision in engineering, logistics, and installation.
This was a highly challenging project with multiple scopes and complex coordination. We would like to express our sincere gratitude to Skanska Sverige AB for their trust, strong cooperation, and continuous support throughout the project. Their professionalism and solution-driven approach were essential in overcoming challenges and successfully delivering this ambitious vision.
Our scope included design, production, transportation, installation, and project management, ensuring quality at every step.
With only final minor finishing works remaining, Snäckan 8 is ready to take its place as a new landmark in Stockholm. 👏✨
