SilviaBo – ett klokare seniorboende
SilviaBo are homes and areas designed for physical and mental well-being, a housing concept developed by the Silviahemmet Foundation, BoKlok and IKEA together. With SilviaBo, safe homes and areas are created that the residents do not want or need to move away from as the apartments are prepared to be easily adapted to an everyday life with cognitive difficulties or a disability.
The idea for SilviaBo comes from Queen Silvia and IKEA's founder Ingvar Kamprad.
SVT:
Queen Silvia inaugurated, among other things, a new home for people with dementia, Silviabo,
The accommodation follows a concept that the Queen herself has been involved in developing and which allows people affected by cognitive illness to live in an apartment with a partner or a friend and at the same time receive help.
SVT followed the inauguration and got an interview with the queen - you can see it in the video above.

H.M. The Queen inaugurated SilviaBo in Helsingborg - as part of the city fair H22
SilviaBo is a housing concept for older adults developed by the Silviahemmet Foundation, BoKlok and IKEA together.
- It feels fantastic fun that H.M. The Queen was on hand to officially inaugurate our first full-scale SilviaBo area, especially considering that it was the Queen and Ingvar Kamprad who came up with the original idea for the SilviaBo concept, says Jonas Spangenberg, CEO of BoKlok.
