In the summer of 2020, we renovated the corridor accommodation at Tomegapsgatan 15 in retro style and this summer it was time for house 13. Now the students can enjoy the newly renovated corridor kitchens, corridors, stairwells, and entrances.

Residents at AF Bostäder can register for indoor football, floorball, and volleyball series free of charge, thanks to a collaboration between AF Bostäder and LUGI Motion.

Finally, the corona restrictions are easing, just in time for us to reopen our newly renovated Service centre.

At Kämnärsrätten, AF Bostäder is building a new, green, and long-term sustainable district for student housing. Bit by bit, Kämnärsrätten is transformed into Sweden's most cozy campus area, and now the third block of seven - Hippocampus - is ready with room for 253 students. Cake and bubble in all its glory, but the best possible inauguration is to see the students move in.

Respect your neighbors, do not arrange any big parties at AF Bostäder's housing areas.

At the request of the students, we have transformed an empty space in the basement into a lively game room with a ping pong table, pool table, and a dart board.

On Wednesday, September 8, we open the sauna at Vildanden, Ulrikedal, Studentlyckan and Parentesen.

The new students in Lund, so-called “novisch”, received their letter of acceptance on Friday. Just over 2 400 of these have now joined AF Bostäder's novisch housing queue which gives priority to about 750 student housing.

We have completed the lottery of queue times for novisch students i.e. first-time students at Lund University autumn 2021. You can start booking available student housing on the website.

Now we have opened the housing queue for new students at Lund University in autumn 2021, so called novisch students.

Every year, we have the privilege of welcoming a residence representative - shortened "bomb" (a student elected representative) to AF Bostäder. August Lindberg is the bomb in autumn 2021 and spring 2022.

One year passes so fast, and now it’s time for the residence representative (shortened ”bomb”) autumn 2020/spring 2021 to complete her mission. But, before leaving the post, Maria had time to answer a few quick questions.

Thank you to all of you who participated in the competition and sent in environmentally friendly cleaning tips! Three winners have now been chosen, congratulations! What tip are you going to try?

Every year, AF Bostäder and the student housing sector carry out the customer satisfaction survey “Nöjd Studbo”, in which the students get the chance to state opinions about their housing and landlord. With 77 SKI points, we did not reach the record scores of recent years but are pleased with the continuing good results.

Spring is here! This means the summer holidays are approaching and (almost as obvious) spring cleaning! We are curious about how you take care of your home in preparation for summer. What is your best sustainable cleaning tip?

Despite the fact that 2020 was the year when everything was put on hold, AF Bostäder's sustainability work has continued with full force. Health continues to be a priority focus area, and have become even more important, the connection between the sustainable operational targets and the UN's Global Goals has been made stronger, climate impact calculations for new buildings have begun and a code of conduct for partners has been developed.

It will soon be April 30th. During the ongoing pandemic, the spontaneous party in Stadsparken has been cancelled by the City of Lund and the park will be completely closed to the public. We would like to remind you about the importance of following the applicable national guidelines and recommendations.

First prize goes to corridor Delphi 55 K, who in an impressive way have captured both classical and modern art on small eggs.

Lundaloppet is a running event organized by IFK Lund. AF Bostäder is sponsoring participation for 300 tenants (also applies to inherent and secondary tenants). First come, first served.

The number of applicants to Lund University is at a record high. To meet increased demand for housing, AF Bostäder is breaking new ground and opening Asteio – virtual student housing with an ideal location in the middle of Lundagård. Here, an unlimited number of Lund students from all over the world will live, study and socialise – all through their VR glasses.

During Easter, we eat lots of eggs. Many are decorated. How do you decorate your eggs in your corridor? Submit pictures of your decorated eggs and compete for gift a gift card at ICA that can be used for your next corridor gathering or a kitchen appliance you have been longing for.

Now, we carry out controls of the customers' study results, so called study control.

We want all who are staying with us to have the best student housing in Sweden. So, we need your help!

All our laundry rooms are now fabric conditioner-free!

Thank you for all the icy and cool contributions to the photo competition! Here are the three winning photos with description. Congratulations!

In a project lasting several years, AF Bostäder is converting long-established student housing at Kämnärsrätten into a long-term sustainable city district. Two of the seven new quarters have already been completed, a third is nearing the moving-in stage and construction of Pireus is now underway – a Nordic Swan Ecolabelled area with space for 300 students from all over the world.

It has been a colder and snowier February than usual. We embrace the weather and challenge you to make creative, detailed, or funny winter art (out of snow or ice)!

The new regulations contain few changes, but the structure has been simplified. You will find info about the most important changes below.

We have now drawn up a Code of Conduct for Partners that includes our sustainability ambitions. With the code of conduct, we want to ensure that we and our partners are in agreement on what is required for us to be able to develop and improve together.

In 2020, a total of 29 tons (!!!) of textiles were donated in the clothing containers in our student housing areas. Textile recycling is both good for the environment and contributes to people in need.
