Fyrtornet is Malm's new timber high-rise a striking addition to the skyline and the final piece completing Hyllie Square. It's the first landmark to greet travelers as they arrive from the continent, a falu-red timber tower reaching proudly skyward, the tallest of its kind in Scandinavia.Save this picture!Save this picture!Save this picture!The ground floor welcomes a public foyer and a living room for the people of Malm. On the second floor, a district library remains open into the evening, with reading rooms oriented towards the square, offering spaces to pause and reflect. Above, office floors unfold with warm timber interiors and triple-height, glass-enclosed terraces that bring in natural light and air. At the top, a shared rooftop garden opens to expansive views of the resund Strait.Save this picture!Sustainability shapes every facet of Fyrtornet. The building's design reduces its carbon footprint from the structural timber frame to the cedar shingle faade. It stands as Scandinavia's tallest office building, constructed entirely of timber. Integrated solar panels on the glass faades and a geothermal energy system further enhance efficiency and resource-conscious design.Save this picture!Save this picture!Save this picture!Save this picture!More than a structure, Fyrtornet is a meeting place and a key element in the Embassy of Sharing district. The public foyer seamlessly blends with commercial spaces and a district library, encouraging encounters between different groups and enriching urban life. A recessed entrance and overhanging roof create a sheltered urban space, inviting people to gather. Two faades are dressed in red cedar shingles, while the other two feature double-glazed curtain walls that reflect the city beyond.Save this picture!Fyrtornet combines thoughtful, holistic design with innovative timber construction and a commitment to social and ecological sustainability. It is an architectural statement that both respects Malm's urban context and aspires to shape its future. A crafted addition to the city's skyline that we hope will enhance Malm's built environment and inspire those who encounter it.Save this picture!Project gallerySee allShow lessProject locationAddress:Hyllie Boulevard 21, 215 32 Malm, SwedenLocation to be used only as a reference.
