The Scharins Site in Ursviken, Skellefteå, SE, faces challenges of housing demand, brownfield conditions, and underutilization. However, it presents an opportunity to become a new local center and recreational hub, revitalizing the connection between the Skellefte River, the town, and its surroundings. Historical traces of the industrial past will gain new meaning, transforming into all-inclusive pedestrian and cycling-oriented backbones that integrate the project priorities of safety, context, ecology, and mobility. The activated riverfront will be dedicated to public space and recreation. This densified, balanced approach plans to provide approximately 2300 residences over the next two decades, welcoming diverse species and cultures to call this place home.
