Villa Kvikkjokk, Private residence in Södra Djurgården, Stockholm, Sweden.
The Villa Kvikkjokk stands near Biskopsudden on a sloping plot overlooking the Stockholm waterfront entrance, featuring hollow brick walls for thermal insulation.
The property was constructed in the 1860s for physician Pehr Henrik Malmsten, following designs by architect Theodor Anckarsvärd, who also designed Långholmen Central Prison.
The villa's name originates from an incident where Doctor Malmsten saved Crown Prince Karl from drowning in Kvikkjokk, Lapland, receiving this land as gratitude.
The building incorporates innovative construction techniques from its era, utilizing hollow bricks with air channels throughout the external walls for enhanced temperature control.
After Malmsten's ownership, the property transferred to Heinrich Robert Berns, founder of Berns Salonger, and later to banker Torsten Kreuger in 1926.
