About A house
A house creates destinations that stimulate creative development and innovation. Within each house, vibrant meeting places are facilitated through coworking, event spaces, program activities tailored to each destination and hand-picked restaurants, where each part becomes a cog that inspires creative development and innovation. A house is more than just coworking – it’s curiosity, personality, learning from each other and becoming a creative force together. It’s good food, drink, fashion, music and culture. Constantly evolving spaces, contrasts and unexpected experiences – but also ingredients we can’t spell. What our members say is what makes A house unique.
Today, A house is located in four places in Stockholm: the School of Architecture in Östermalm with a focus on food, fashion, media and music; Filmhuset at Gärdet for film and moving image; and Börshuset in the Slakthus area with a focus on design, drink, food and music. In September we opened A house Katarinahuset – the hub of our destinations and our largest destination to date, in the middle of Slussen. Next year we will open the doors to our fifth destination: Sickla Central.
