Functionalist avant-garde with the best views in town.
The Slussen area is in the middle of a major transformation. What was previously mostly a traffic hub will soon be a brand new city center where business will meet culture and nightlife. Katarinahuset, or KF-house as it is popularly known, was used as offices for the Cooperative Union for many decades. Today, the building is completely renovated and part of the area’s development.
A House moved into three expansive floors in September 2024. Throughout the renovation, the building’s history set the tone. The guiding principles of functionalist avant-garde have resulted in a distinctive environment where functionalist furniture meets exposed pillars and raw concrete.
In our entrance you’ll find Pet Sounds Bar – the little brother of the legendary record store on Skånegatan. A long-awaited place for Stockholm’s music lovers with exciting wine lists, food from morning to evening, live performances and music quizzes. Both up-and-coming and established acts are booked here for intimate gigs. The building also houses the restaurants Gondolen, Klotet and Pelago.
A House Katarinahuset is much more than just coworking. We offer inspiring environments for creators to grow and find new collaborations and communities. The recipe consists of personality, new business opportunities, inspiration, learning, culture, food, and drink. Continuous development, contrasts, and unexpected experiences — as well as those intangible ingredients that our members believe make A House unique.

From cooperation to creative coworking
Residential buildings in a poor harbor district, KF’s main building and the hub of Stockholm’s new commercial heart. Katarinahuset is a child of its time.
