Depth of Field

Extending Fotografiska beneath ground.

Since Fotografiska already covers its windows to control light, the proposal explores how the photography museum can evolve underground. By connecting the museum to the ongoing extension of the blue line metro, the museum combines culture with infrastructure and opens the inaccessible site to the rest of Stockholm.

Team Sara Holmgren & Julie Wójcik
An exceptional and highly resolved proposal that masterfully integrates infrastructure, city, and culture. The concept of extending Fotografiska underground to connect metro, waterfront, and urban fabric is both visionary and pragmatic. The spatial sequence from metro descent to the “lens” and cylindrical exhibition space, creates a powerful and memorable architectural journey, while the integration of cinema, workshops, and public programs establishes a vibrant cultural hub.
