Architect for industrial buildings and warehouses

An industrial building is designed around flow: how materials, machinery, transport and people move through the building. Arkigroup AB designs industrial halls, workshops and warehouses, from the first sketch to building permit, structural drawings and construction documents. The spaces are planned so they can be adapted as the business changes.

What makes a good industrial building

What happens inside the hall determines how it should look. That is why we start with the business:

  • Production flow: where materials come in, how they move through production and where finished products go out.
  • Doors and loading: doors, loading bays and space for lorries are positioned according to how goods are handled.
  • Frame and span: large column-free spaces require a well-considered structural frame. Our structural engineer designs the structure.
  • Working environment: Arbetsmiljöverket's provisions on the design of workplaces, AFS 2023:12, set requirements for the workplace, including lighting and staff facilities.
  • Flexibility: spaces and services that can be rebuilt when production changes.

Industrial projects we have designed

For Linköpings Träförädling, Nordströms, Arkigroup produced architectural drawings, construction documents and a visualisation of an industrial hall for building materials storage and a shop in Tornby, Linköping. Read more about the project builders' merchant in Tornby.

In Linköping we redesigned an industrial building into a two-storey office with a workshop, focusing on daylight, acoustics and technical services. Read more about the project industrial building turned office.

Drawings and a 3D model of a workshop and industrial hall can be found among our references.

How it works

  1. Needs consultation

    We go through the business, the site, the detailed development plan and the project budget. The consultation is free.

  2. Sketch and 3D

    A first proposal for the floor plan and massing, which you can view in 3D and change.

  3. Building permit

    Building permit drawings and the documents the municipality needs, plus help through the application.

  4. Construction documents

    Architecture, structure, HVAC and plumbing and electrical are coordinated into complete construction documents.

  5. Procurement and construction

    We prepare tender documents so that you can compare bids, or build for you through a design and build contract.

Would you like us to build the hall too?

The same firm can take the project from the first sketch to the finished building through a design and build contract, with one contract and one contact person.

Frequently asked questions about designing industrial buildings

Is a building permit needed for an industrial hall?

A new industrial hall is normally assessed against the detailed development plan in a building permit application. We produce the drawings and documents and guide you through the application.

Can you design offices and staff facilities in the same building?

Yes. Offices, changing rooms, staff facilities and storage are designed together with the hall.

Can an existing industrial building be converted?

Yes. We have redesigned an industrial building into offices and a workshop in Linköping, and an industrial building into homes on Gamla Tanneforsvägen.
