Jerker Lessing in the new podcast Future Distributed

In September, BoKlok welcomed Will Needham, founder of the Future Distributed podcast, focusing on innovative construction methods. BoKlok, being a sustainable, quality and low-cost home provider with an industrialised building process, had caught his eye. Jerker Lessing, research and development manager at BoKlok, was interviewed for the podcast.

The 36 volumetric elements in the film, took two days to assemble into an entire apartment building with three stories and 12 apartments.

36 apartment modules mounted in 60 seconds!

BoKlok is the sustainable, quality and low-cost home provider jointly owned by Skanska and IKEA, and we build our homes as volumetric elements indoors in an industrialised, modern way of building. On site, they are then assembled into homes.

Efficient, industrial and modern - a smarter way to build!

At BoKlok we call ourselves the sustainable, quality and low-cost home provider. We are jointly owned by Skanska and IKEA and we like to talk about how our way of building is efficient, industrial and modern. But what do we mean by that, and how do we think about efficiency?

The Daily Telegraph curious about BoKlok

On Monday, Luke Mintz, a journalist at The Daily Telegraph, visited BoKlok in Sweden. BoKlok is the sustainable, quality and low-cost home provider jointly owned by Skanska and IKEA. The reason for the visit is the great interest in Boklok's brand and concept since the news that BoKlok expands to England came out in the beginning of the summer.
