Riksrådsvägen

Riksrådsvägen is a residential area in Skarpnäcks gård with rows of connected houses that share unified architectural features. Each home has its own garden space while maintaining consistent building styles throughout the development.

The complex was developed in the mid-twentieth century as Stockholm expanded, designed by architects Léonie and Charles-Edouard Geisendorf. It represents the postwar modernization efforts that reshaped Swedish residential planning.

The neighborhood shows how Swedish housing design values shared spaces and the connection between homes and nature. You can see how the layout encourages residents to live close to green areas.

The area is well connected by bus routes that offer direct access to central Stockholm and make getting around easy. Local schools and parks nearby make it practical for both living and visiting.

The development combines individual garden spaces for each house with architectural consistency in a way that was unusual for housing projects of that era. This balance between privacy and community planning demonstrates thoughtful design choices.
