Every design for Kungsbacka

A little way into Halland, just a stone's throw from Gothenburg, lies Kungsbacka. It is a town of comfortable size where everyday life moves at an agreeable pace – on foot through the centre, past familiar corners and places you pass without really thinking about them.

It is exactly those details that give the town its character. Many recognise artworks and landmarks such as the Kungsbacka woman, the playful Mario statue and Snövit, while Glädjens källa and Blommans cirkel are among the spots you walk past again and again. Outside the town centre you find older places such as Gåsevadsholm and the quiet cholera cemetery, traces of a longer history.

It is the sum of all these streets and points that becomes the picture of a home town. A map of Kungsbacka is less about geography and more about memory – about having grown up here, cycled the same roads and knowing the town in your legs long after you moved away.
