Tapetfabriken Hotel / White Arkitekter

The Clarion Collection Tapetfabriken, in the Sickla district of Nacka, southeastern Stockholm, is a hotel named after the Swedish wallpaper manufacturer Kåbergs, active in the old factory building already in 1906. A century later, after having functioned several years as a service building for Swedish industrial company Atlas Copco and as an office, developer Atrium Ljungberg proposed a repurposing of the building to add another urban layer to the old industrial area. The idea was to build off of the local industrial history by keeping the existing brick façade and then create a new interior and a modern extension on top. In 2021, the Tapetfabriken hotel opened its doors and began a new vibrant chapter in the life of this historical building.
