The elderly care home is a part of the Skärvet city block, which is the starting point of Bäckaslöv, a new urban district in Växjö being developed along the railway connecting the city center to the Norra Bergundasjön lake. The L- shaped building is the first phase and the cornerstone of the city block, offering mixed forms of tenure around a spacious, shared courtyard.
