Where history lives on
Generations of students have lived at Lucidor since the late 1960s. After many years, the building was in need of maintenance and renovation. The work has therefore been about more than simply updating the homes – preserving the building’s character has been just as important.
Throughout the renovation, we have taken the building’s history into consideration by choosing materials that reflect its period and preserving details and features that belong to its original character. The result is updated student housing where the building’s historic atmosphere remains.
Lucidor is now ready for a new generation of students to call it home.



Imagine calling Gamla stan home
Gamla stan has been home to Stockholmers for centuries. People have lived, worked and built their lives here since Stockholm first began to take shape in the Middle Ages.
Lucidor is part of that history – and part of SSSB’s history too. Students have lived here before, and now the building continues to be a place for student life among cobbled streets, narrow alleyways and historic façades.
Living at Lucidor means making your everyday life part of one of Stockholm’s most vibrant and historic neighbourhoods – while becoming part of the next chapter in the building’s story.
