The mixed city is a highly sought-after model for building modern cities. In the Opalen tenement block in Täby Park, Skanska takes the task seriously and brings the mix right down to apartment level. The diversity of housing forms is an important aspect of the mixed city. Residents have the flexibility to move between homes that suit different life phases and life situations within the same area.

 

Opalen has received special focus on meeting places that encourage community between the residents. It is part of a larger intention for Täby Park: to remove involuntary loneliness. The courtyard will have a small playground, pergola and seating where it becomes natural to meet. An extra nice feature is the large roof terrace where tenants from all four buildings can gather, with a view of the mixed city.
