SARA Community centre Skellefteå

We are pleased to announce Widala's participation in the construction of the SARA community centre. This impressive 20-floor building will consist entirely of Swedish wood, delivered by local producers from Norrland. A construction entirely in the spirit of sustainability.

When and where can you find it?

The mighty terrace, in the best location to the west, faces both the city pulse and the mountains just outside of Skellefteå. A powerful sight, just like the building itself, in the middle of central Skellefteå. The idea of ​​building one of the world's tallest wooden buildings, in terms of number of floors, has become a reality and is a success story that can now be viewed by the public. Both on the terrace and areas next to it will be furnished by Widala. ed and ready to use, for many many years to come.

Widala a given partner in this

The heat-treated Norlandic wood completely without chemicals, the organic shapes and the local production gave Widala the opportunity to decorate parts of SARA community centre with the Elements series. The furniture from the acclaimed series Elements is a collaboration between design- and architectural firm Claesson Koivisto Rune and Widala. It first saw the light of day at Stockholm Furniture Fair in 2017 and became an immediate success. Fittingly, the series gets its name from its patterns, which are inspired by nature. The choice of ThermoWood was an easy one to avoid chemicals and long transports across the globe, especially when the best materials are just around the corner. In 2021, the series will be expanded with more materials from Swedish nature, like granite, limestone and natural tanned leather.

More pictures will be posted in late summer/autumn, keep you eyes opened!
