An adaptation project to reuse existing structures in response to the need for a temporary fire station in Kungsholmen, Stockholm, whilst the existing fire station is to be renovated.
The brief required full operation of the fire service whilst acting as a training centre for emergency readiness. The temporary fire station is built using salvaged material from the recently dismantled temporary market hall in Ostermalm, Stockholm. The proposal deconstructs and repurposes the market hall according to the fire service’s needs.
