Most of the equipment in the round church is made of recycled materials.
To the altar, baptismal font and the organ kabinett the artist Finn Ahlgren of Godspeed
used recycled wood.
The altar and processional crosses are made from
recycled glass from scrapped televisions and monitors. The chasubles
with its symbolic applications is made of durable linen made by the
sewing circle of the local community.
The new Tureberg Church is situated in Sollentuna just outside Stockholm. Architect Helena Tallius Myhrman from Tallius Myhrman Architects wanted to do the Tureberg Church bold yet timeless. It’s a modern concrete church with sustainability in mind.
The chairs by Alexander Lervik for Johanson design have seats made of recycled PET bottles.
