Practice Unfiltered by Olsson Lyckefors
With “Practice Unfiltered,” Swedish architecture firm Olsson Lyckefors takes visitors behind the scenes, providing a rare glimpse into the daily, unpolished reality of an architectural practice. In a world where architecture is often presented as flawless finished products, they aim to disrupt the narrative, presenting early sketches, incomplete ideas and the twists and turns that define a project’s journey.

By sharing these raw and formative stages, Johan Olsson and Andreas Lyckefors hope to inspire a deeper understanding of the craft.
– Architecture is not a straight path; it is a journey full of challenges, surprises and discoveries. It is in these moments of uncertainty that true creativity and expertise are put to the test, often leading to unexpected and remarkable results, say the architects.
The exhibition will be displayed in a pavilion originally designed by Olsson Lyckefors for Papershell. For SFF 2025, the pavilion has been rebuilt in close collaboration with Södra and Papershell using cutting-edge, sustainable materials such as CLT (cross-laminated timber) and prototypes of Papershell’s façade panels. After the fair, the pavilion will start a new journey and be relocated to other sites.
