About us - Indicum

Indicum is an office with strong ideas, broad expertise and a dynamic process that places great emphasis on team spirit both internally and with our clients

Indicum Inredningsarkitekter was founded in 2006 in Uppsala by Kristin Östberg. From the very beginning, the idea was that a pure interior design office is a success factor. Indicum is in a unique position and there are few interior architects in Sweden and we differ from other offices by gathering only interior architects and still working on large projects all over the country. All our employees are trained architects, with SIR titles or equivalent, and we work in all areas of the profession. With our commitment to driving development and innovation in the industry, Indicum has grown. Today we have offices in Uppsala and Stockholm and are both established and well known.

We are interior architects

We have well-proven methods and processes for both large and small assignments. We have a non-profit commitment where our expertise benefits many. We matter in professional contexts! With our strong roots in the research community, we bring an important scientific dimension to the architectural profession.

We work in a sustainable way

We are leaders in sustainable interior architecture. For us, sustainability is about creating environments that promote people’s well-being within the limits of the resources we have. We prefer to reuse rather than produce new, and choose materials that stand the test of time.

As a result, our projects radiate good interior architecture, an overall sense of space, and reduced environmental impact. In all of our projects, we challenge the throwaway mindset. We value high design standards while thinking innovatively. We always work with ambitious environmental goals and are eager to test new solutions.

We specialize in Hållbar Interiör, the environmental certification aimed at tenants that assesses entire spaces based on defined environmental criteria, through our certified HI coaches who guide and inspire conscious choices, promote reuse, and create long-term sustainable interiors.

Together with our clients, we aim for a sustainable transition and a better industry. Read more about how we work with sustainability at Indicum.

The customer-oriented office with the big visions

We have proven methods and processes for both large and small assignments. At our offices in Uppsala and Stockholm, we focus on team spirit both internally and with our clients. Our driving force is to always go the extra mile for our clients.

Interiors that make an impact

Over the years, we have left our mark on several Uppsala interiors: the Psykiatrins hus, Segerstedthuset, Uppsala vatten, Katedralskolan, Uppsala Nya Stadshus and several private companies. With space-efficient furnishing plans, well-considered colour schemes and exciting eye-catchers, we create interiors that impress and leave an impact.
