Esselte building, Office building in Stockholm, Sweden.
The Esselte building is an office structure in Stockholm with multiple floors organized around a distinctive central stairwell. The design emphasizes clean lines and functional workspace layout throughout.
Architect Ivar Tengbom designed and built this structure from 1928 to 1934 during a period of significant architectural change in Stockholm. It was part of a wave of new office buildings that transformed the city.
The building exemplifies the functionalist architectural movement of the 1930s, reflecting the Swedish approach to combining utility with architectural design.
The building houses various companies and is easily accessible by public transportation. Nearby shops and services make it a practical location within the city center.
Each floor level in the main stairwell includes an integrated light fixture that displays the floor number through its design. These details show how carefully even practical functions were crafted.
