In the newly built neighbourhood Passageraren, Iggy stands out - a punky building with a rusty red tone and spectacular views. Compact one-bedroom apartments with luxurious balconies coexist with penthouses with terraces, two-storey apartments with striking ceiling heights and three-bedroom apartments. The variety creates interesting dynamics in the building and eventually for the neighbourhood.
Iggy is a celebration of benefits of walking for the climate, the cityscape and personal health. Like Ohboy, it's a pilot project exploring ways to reduce car use in the city. Cycling, walking and public transport solutions are shared by residents and passers-by are offered rain shelters and drinking fountains. The outdoor environment is lively and green, for the pedestrian-friendly city.

”Like a punk rocker (ed: Iggy Pop) in our time, Cord Siegel is paving new paths to success with his site-specific architectural designs, most recently IGGY in Sorgenfri. His life-affirming architecture with high sustainability ambitions contributes to social encounters and urban pulse. His innovative, often practically mobile solutions, addition of green art and inclusive street spaces elevate Malmö as a present and future city.”
