Tour of Campus Lidingö

Campus Lidingö facade
The largest portion of the campus building, including workshops, studios, classrooms, etc., was finished in 2009, when Malmstens moved to Lidingö from its previous premises in central Stockholm.  Peter Karlsson
Students on Campus Lidingö
The students all have their own workplaces, but collaboration flourishes both within and between the programmes, facilitated by the architecture of the new building.  Peter Karlsson
Biblioteket / Library
In an older part of the building is the library named after construction company owner John Mattson. His daughters, Kerstin Skarne and Ann-Sofie Mattson, donated money to build it up. It specialises in furniture, wood and design, and features cosy armchairs and a piano. Maria Karlberg
