Villa Wikström

Villa Wikström is a brick residential building in Diplomatstaden with elaborate facade details showing pilasters and arched windows arranged in herringbone patterns between curved roof sections. The interior is organized around a central two-story round hall with symmetrically placed salon, library, and dining areas.

The house was designed in 1925 by architect Cyrillus Johansson for merchant Carl Wikström, who introduced masonite production to Europe under American patent license. It was built during a period when the neighborhood transformed into a residential area for wealthy Stockholm residents.

The property received a blue marking from Stockholm City Museum, indicating its exceptional architectural and historical significance for the city.

The building is privately occupied and can be viewed from the surrounding streets while walking through the neighborhood. The architectural details are best appreciated from the public pathways that run alongside the property.

The central round hall extends through two floors, originally featuring a skylight, with symmetrical arrangements of salon, library, and dining areas.
