Färgfabriken, Contemporary art museum in Liljeholmen, Sweden
Färgfabriken is a contemporary art museum housed in a former industrial building in Liljeholmen that focuses on modern architecture and urban development. The space displays exhibitions exploring how design, building, and city questions connect together.
The building originally operated as a paint and soap factory starting in the late 1800s. In 1995 it was transformed into a cultural space and has served since then as a venue for contemporary discussions about city and space.
The space reflects how industrial work and urban growth shaped people's lives here. Visitors can see today how artists and architects think about city life and change through the exhibitions on display.

The venue hosts an annual Architecture Triennial that brings together international professionals. It also offers specialized workshops focusing on Stockholm's industrial water systems and how the city's infrastructure developed.
