The Machine Quarter and Sing-sing are affected by the moves from Södertälje and Kista.

Better offices thanks to campus relocationThe big move puzzle is in full swing. In the autumn of 2025, colleagues from both Södertälje and Kista will move to the KTH campus, and this will mean shake-ups in several places. Sing-sing and parts of the machine quarter are now being refurbished to meet the needs and requirements of the tenants for the work environment.
“Just like the Kista staff, we think that the standard of classrooms and offices is much more outdated on the KTH campus than what we are used to in Södertälje”, says
Magnus Wiktorsson, project manager for the move from Södertälje. "Now we can change that."
Better offices thanks to move | | | Sara Ilstedt, Professor at MMK | More sustainable student accommodation
More sustainability and less loneliness. This could be the result of the new regulations for student accommodation proposed to be introduced on 1 July and where KTH has contributed with research to create more, better and cheaper student housing.
"It feels great that our research can result in changes that benefit students," says Ilstedt.

"Plastics in truck cabins, for instance, are often incinerated and not recycled," says Farazee Asif, who leads a project about circularity together with Scania.
Earlier this year, a new study was launched to assess the feasibility of enhancing circularity of truck cabins.

Code for access to Brinellv, 8
| In addition
to an access card, a personal code is now required to enter Brinellvägen 8. The
