About HDK

HDK is situated in the heart of Gothenburg, next to the Röhsska museum for design and crafts. The house was built at Kristinelundsgatan specially for our school 1904, with support from Göteborgs Slöjdförening. Architect: Hans Hedlund.

In our house we have lecture rooms, work shops, studios, library, café, exhibition hall and workrooms for students and staff. At HDK future designers, craftsmen, artists and future teachers in Visual Arts, gather in the same building as researchers and PhD students.

Here you can read more about our reconstruction work going on right now, with the aim of opening up the house even more. you can also read more about our workshops, library and about the history of the school.
