Stockholm has emphatically cleared the way for David Chipperfield鈥檚 拢100m Nobel Centre to be built on the city鈥檚 waterfront.

The Stockholm County Administrative Board has granted detailed planning approval for the controversial scheme and at the same time dismissed all remaining appeals against it.

The project, which Chipperfield won in an international competition in 2014 and which is being led by the practice鈥檚 Berlin-based managing director Christoph Felger, has divided opinion in Sweden.

The country鈥檚 king described the brass-clad cultural centre as 鈥渧ery domineering鈥�. Opponents criticised its location on a delicate site requiring the demolition of a number of historic harbourside buildings.

But the city authorities gave outline permission a year ago, since when the practice has been working up the proposals.

Lars Heikensten, executive director of the Nobel Foundation, said they were 鈥渧ery pleased鈥� with this week鈥檚 approval.

鈥淏y constructing the Nobel Centre, we are creating the home of the Nobel Prize in Stockholm 鈥� an intellectual living room with broad public activities including school programmes, scientific conferences, meetings and events,鈥� he said.

鈥淚n an era when facts are being challenged, when populism and nationalism are flourishing, the Nobel Prize has a unique opportunity to draw attention to science, knowledge, humanism and peace.鈥�
