Vittra School Södermalm
2012, Stockholm, Sweden
The pedagogical visions have moved into historic buildings of Vittra School Södermalm, so digitalization, individual learning needs, and interdisciplinary project work are part of the students’ everyday life.
Our design of the learning landscape focuses on the library as a treasure chest of knowledge where students can discover and immerse themselves. Around the central space, a flexible learning environment unfolds so students and teachers can move freely and choose the places best suited to their learning needs.
Crystal chandeliers, lounge furniture, and high wooden tables create a cozy, academic environment that invites to talk and group work, while colorful caves give room for immersion.
Our overall approach to differentiated learning areas gives the school space for its educational visions and didactics. At Vittra School Södermalm we have created rooms that students take ownership of and enjoy spending time in – even after class.

When designing schools, our primary task is to create an environment that nourishes the desire to learn. At Vittra School Södermalm, the design strategy is to provide space for the students’ learning needs, new technologies, and opportunities for collaborative and creative development.
The students can choose between different zones to match their needs. It is a huge support in our daily work.
Annica Ångell, principal at Vittra School Södermalm





Vittra School Södermalm is developed according to our design guide for new learning landscapes at Vittra schools based on the design of Vittra School Telefonplan. The design guide presents guidelines for designing the physical space as an educational tool and provides specific guidance on space needs, space planning, lighting, acoustics, standard furniture and custom designs.
