Kilpatrick Townsend has assisted AMF Fastigheter AB regarding the extensive reconstruction of the fifth high-rise building at Sergels torg in Stockholm. The premises will house the new digital culture center Space; the world’s largest gaming center and home to the Avicii Experience.

On November 27 this year, Space will open to the public. Space will be a new and world-unique meeting place that combines gaming, music and content creation on seven floors comprising approximately 7 500 m². The building will be the world’s largest gaming center and home to the Avicii Experience: an immersive tribute exhibition honoring one of the true icons of modern popular culture.

“As part of our urban development work, we at AMF Fastigheter have focused on cultural and creative industries. They strengthen the city’s pulse, identity and attraction. Space will be a fantastic addition that fills the fifth high-rise building with new exciting content. With Space focus on creation, community and performing arts in everything from music to gaming, we hope to bring new life into Sergels torg during more hours of the day and at the same time contribute to strengthening Stockholm as a city of culture and music”, says Mats Hederos, CEO of AMF Fastigheter.

AMF Fastigheter AB is one of Sweden’s largest real estate companies. The market value of AMF Fastigheter AB’s properties exceeds SEK 73 billion. AMF Fastigheter AB is a wholly owned subsidiary of the pension company AMF Pensionsförsäkring AB.

Kilpatrick Townsend advised AMF Fastigheter AB throughout the whole project. Among other things, we drafted the construction partnering contracts.

Kilpatrick Townsend’s team included Mattias Wittgren, Marcus Munk and Johan Wedsberg.
