Art and culture

The Swedish National Property Board (SFV) manages many of Sweden's biggest theatres and museums. We are responsible for ensuring that the national cultural and artistic institutions have suitable, functional premesis.

A limelight for Swedish culture

Our day-to-day operational work is often to do with the invisible side of the theatre or musical experience. The aspects that go unnoticed when everything works but become instantly apparent when something goes wrong. This includes ventilation, climate, electricity, heating, water, sanitation and security, for instance. Making sure everything runs smoothly calls for knowledge of the connection between the building itself and the particular activities that go on there. Moisture-sensitive musical instruments, valuable artworks and historical objects all place strict demands on the environment. Of course the public has an impact as well. A building obviously suffers when 500 people arrive simultaneously, take a break at the samt time and then all leave again at the same time.

Managing the nation's heritage buildings

Museums and theatres are also workplaces for people in different artistic fields, and they occasionally have quite unusual requirements on their working environment, including acoustics, lighting and ventilation.

SFV has a whole range of specialists who are responsible for different functions, such as operational engineers and administrators. We also bring in specialists in particular areas for specific renovations and reconstructions.

National Museum of World Culture

One of the more recent major events is the new Museum of World Culture in Gothenburg. SFV have been responsible for project planning and administration. An international competition involving architects from 26 countries eventually led to the winning proposal "Ice Cube" by the young architectural partnership of Cècile Brisac and Edgar Gonzalez.

Other museums built by SFV in recent years are the Naval Museum in Karlskrona, and the Modern Museum and Swedish Museum of Architecture in Stockholm.

Architect Göran Månsson wanted his building for the Vasa to be seen as 'a gentle copper tent among the greenery of Djurgården'. The museum was finished in 1990, adding an unusual new silhouette to the Stockholm guideline.

The facade of Sweden's Royal Dramatic Theatre lights up the Stockholm sky like a marble wedding cake, with a plastic, detailed art nouveau style more at home in Vienna or Paris.
