Culturally interesting buildings are often inaccessible in consideration of today´s standards. When reconstructing a building, the new construction requirements have to be satisfied. This could be a problem when the building is culturally marked. The purpose of this report is to produce a draft for a new floor plan for the three-story building Gnistan 2 in Bollnäs, that is accessibility adapted and simultaneously meet conservation requirements. The first question to be answered in the thesis is if the building requires an elevator. To answer that question, a study on BBR, PBL, BVL and Svensk Standard has been made. Also an interview with Gävle municipality and a study via internet sources has been made. The other question is how the Culture marking is going to affect the accessibility of the building. To answer that question a study on BBR, PBL, PBF* and Svensk Standard has been made, also an interview with Gävle municipality and a literature review has been made. The last questions that have been answered are evacuation and the reconstruction plausibility. This will be answered through literature review and a study via internet sources and BBR, PBL, PBF and Svensk Standard. The result shows that it is able to find a solution that fits the accessibility and at the same time preserving the cultural value of the building. The reconstruction should be based on the condition of the building. The lift requirements in this case could be disregarded because the building was considered to have two floors as the top floor was part of a duplex apartment. There must be a projection for an elevator so that later in time it will be easy to install an elevator if needed. The reconstruction of the building seems reasonable considering the revenues that the apartments will bring.
