During the autumn of last year, Huddinge municipality made the decision to build a new town hall and leave their current premises in a couple of years. The current town hall consists of three parts and together they add historical annual rings and high architectural quality to this area, which has been an administrative center in Huddinge since the 13th century. However, as of today the future of these buildings is uncertain and the office building may now face the risk of demolition. This diploma project is therefore investigating how the office building can be repurposed to prolong its life and prevent 7500 tons of load-bearing concrete to go to waste. The new program is housing and 40 new apartments have been created. The existing courtyards have been opened up and the removed concrete, bricks, and windows are reused to add a new floor. In the new proposal, 84% of the load-bearing structure is original, 9% is reused and 7% is new. There is a large variety of apartments, ranging from 28 m2 to 129 m2 to enable diversity
