Biblioteksgatan-Birger Jarlsgatan-Stureplan, known for its luxurious high density of luxury stores and historical architecture, is an extreme case in the built environment in a Swedish context. This thesis examines how private property developers shape the urban landscape and change dynamics within Stockholm's luxurious shopping district and its surroundings. Luxury brands create attractive urban environments that draw elite businesses and individuals, driving economic growth and urban regeneration. The study explores the role of urban partnerships and identity creation in contemporary city development, emphasising the collaboration between private property developers and public authorities in addressing urban challenges. By clustering luxury retail in prime locations, developers enhance the area's attractive perception, attract affluent residents and tourists, and contribute to the city's competitiveness. The thesis adopts a political-economic perspective, integrating theories from David Harvey, Michael Porter, and Richard Florida to understand the influence of private property developers on urban development. It employs a case study approach, using semi-structured interviews and existing literature to provide comprehensive insights into the strategies and impacts of private property developers in Stockholm. Luxury research is largely missing in a North European context, and this thesis aims to contribute to the research gap.
