Nya Kolonin is a speculative project proposing a new kind of urban allotment colony in Stockholm. It responds to the demand for affordable, leisure-based accommodation built around the allotment garden tradition.

The scheme has 25 small houses arranged on sloping terrain, lifted on plinths to keep the natural ground intact. All houses share summer water, drainage, and electricity, with private toilets in a communal block.

Each house is assembled from four modules chosen from a set of seven types: veranda, studio, bedroom, kitchen, greenhouse, roof terrace, and deck. Every unit ends up with a unique configuration tailored to its owner's lifestyle. The modules measure 2.7 by 2.7 metres, giving roughly 19 m² of interior floor area per house.

The project positions itself as a prototype. Similar settlements could be set up on underused sites across Stockholm, with the model adapted to different social formats: artist collectives, friend groups, rental schemes, and self-build plots.
