Åhléns City, Department store in Norrmalm district, Stockholm, Sweden
The Åhléns City building spans 40 by 130 meters with a windowless high street facade featuring alternating red and white striped concrete elements.
Founded in 1899 as a mail order business, Åhléns opened this flagship store in 1964, marking a shift from catalog sales to physical retail.
The Stockholm City Museum recognizes the building's architectural merit, which earned the Kasper Salin Prize in 1966 for its design by Backström & Reinius.
The store occupies multiple levels with departments for fashion, beauty, home goods, and includes two underground floors dedicated to parking spaces.
A large copper clock with real gold leaf, designed by the building architects, dominates the exterior facade of this retail landmark.
