Hyllie is the southern expansion of Malmö, located at the foot of the Oresund bridge. This new urban development has the perfect location to provide new housing and public buildings to the larger Øresund region. This new hub ambitions to become the most climate-smart neighbourhood in the region. The area is under influence of a so-called climate contract, committing to rely solely on renewable and recycled energy. This all goes hand in hand with exciting new architecture and infrastructure, offering space for new meeting points, businesses and dwellings.

City tunnel / Hyllie station | Metro arkitekter – Sweco (2010)
The station forms a gateway between Malmö and Copenhagen. A large round roof offers shelter to the platforms, while letting light through its many perforations.

Parking house The Ice Block | FOJAB arkitekter (2010)
This multimodal parking house connects to Hyllie station to make further travel with public transport possible. Its façade exists out of 3600 adjustable “glass wings”, which can be set in different designs.

Water park Hyllie | COWI & Kiessler and Mannerstråle (2014)
Water structures are incorporated in a playful landscape which stimulates active use. A water tower forms a central futuristic landmark, hosting a water information center.

Green roof Emporia | Wingårdh (2012)
Malmö has been an international example in its use of green roofs. The largest green roof can be found on top of Emporia center in Hyllie and is publicly accessible.

Eco-city Augustenborg (& botanical garden)
This housing estate of the fifties was transformed into a more sustainable neighborhood in all fields (economical, ecological and socially). This project was the main reason Malmö won the Habitat award for urban sustainability.
