Temporary exhibition

Architecture Projects: Brunnsparken

5 JUNE 2021- 26 SEPTEMBER 2021

A monument to partying, complete with secret rooms. A teenager, looking for their identity. A place that has served its purpose. Visions for the Brunnsparken of the future differ wildly when architects are given a free hand to speculate around the future of one of Gothenburg’s most talked-about spaces.
