Brf Prima
Harbor life with a view
At Sundsvall’s northern quay, new homes now rise where an old industrial area once stood. We designed two residential buildings offering generous views and balconies, inspired by harbor cities such as Amsterdam. In short – welcome to Brf Prima.
Brf Prima consists of two blocks, one of which was completed in the spring of 2018. The buildings are defined by their generous terraces and bright, open floor plans that invite light and flow. The apartments vary in size, from two to four rooms with kitchens, and all offer calming views over the water – a feature that brings a strong sense of place and presence to each home.
The surrounding landscape plays an important role in the design. Orangeries, balconies, and rooftop terraces create seamless transitions between indoors and outdoors, making nature a part of everyday life.
Because the block doesn’t have a traditional courtyard, the sense of community finds expression elsewhere. Residents share a large communal rooftop terrace that faces southwest, protected from the wind and with an open view over the bay and Sundsvall’s scenic city center – a place for spontaneous meetings, evening sun, and connection.
Generous terraces and open layouts



Brf Prima draws inspiration from harbor cities like Amsterdam. Narrow building volumes stand side by side, each with its own identity. We brought that idea to life by giving every structure a distinct expression. Together, they create variation and rhythm along the block. Open stairwells and orangeries break through the brick façade, adding light, texture, and a sense of movement – small details that bring the whole to life.
