From a school in Göteborg open to residents in the evening to an inclusive library in Stockholm, all the examples presented strive to involve and include people, responding to questions of accessibility, equality, sustainability and cultural diversity. Discover the latest Swedish innovations in this field and share your ideas for tools that might allow us to create more democratic forms of architecture!

Aiming for democratic achitecture was produced by Architects Sweden for the Institut Suédois, in collaboration with the MYCKET collective – Mariana Alves Silva, Katarina Bonnevier and Thérèse Kristiansson.
