Studio project, spring 2019. 
The task was to come up with a new use and design suggestion for the building Båtsmanskasernen, a building placed on Skeppsholmen in Stockholm, originally built in 1805 to be used as military lodging. 

I suggested using the building as a hostel, as it both connects to its original lodging purpose, as well as to the site close to central Stockholm where many tourists visit.
