Will Needham and Jerker Lessing during the podcasting session.

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.

Clever homes for life

BoKlok is a home ownership concept from Sweden, owned by Skanska. We are a developer of sustainable residential communities with more than 25 years’ experience and so far we have developed about 15,000 homes across Scandinavia. BoKlok was established in the UK in 2019.

BoKlok is responsible for the entire value chain, from product development, project development and manufacturing in the factory to construction, sales and customer relations after moving in.

We combine Skanska's solid experience of building houses with IKEA's solid experience of furnishing them, creating sustainable homes and communities with high quality and beautiful design, that offer great value to the people who live there.
