Recent projects include Stockholm Stadshotell—named one of the best new hotels in the world by Travel + Leisure—and SEEQC, the first chip-based quantum computing company, which recently published groundbreaking data, closed an oversubscribed financing round, and presented at NVIDIA’s GTC “quantum day” conference.
Originally built between 1873 and 1875 in memory of King Oscar I, the historic building at Björngårdsgatan 23 has reopened its doors as »Stockholm Stadshotell«.
Carefully restored in close collaboration with architects, designers, artists, and craftspeople, the building has been reimagined with 32 rooms and suites, two restaurants, a bar, a guest lounge, sauna and cold plunge, and a courtyard garden restaurant.
