Lighting
In order to save energy, the building's lighting system is predominantly performed presence-controlled.
This causes the lighting to switch on and off automatically.
Fluorescent lamps are generally made with high-frequency devices (HF devices) that provide flicker-free
lighting. Some fixtures in escape routes are connected to uninterruptible power such as led/emergency lighting and
turns on automatically in the event of a power failure.
Exterior lighting
Lighting in entrances, windbreaks and exterior lighting is switched on and off automatically via a central system
installed light relay in combination with time function.
Classrooms
Classrooms strive to have an active ignition by pressing a button. Switching off may also require a button press, but if the lamp does not switch off, it is set to switch off when there is no one in the room.
The switch-off takes place on absence, in some cases switch-off is required on the button.

General information
The business district is located where Vasagatan and Sprängkullsgatan meet.
The original house contains the library and the large lecture hall, which has a prominent position in a round building in the best corner of the block. The reading room has a relationship with Asplund's city library in Stockholm and faces a large shop window towards the park opposite. The area where the buildings are located is of national interest for the conservation of the cultural environment.
The part of the School of Economics that was completed in 1995 has won both the Kasper Salin prize (1995) and the Per & Alma Olsson's fund for good architecture (1996) with the following justification:
"The new building completed the School of Economics into a fully and clearly present block in the city. The inner courtyard is beautiful, open to all, comprehensible to all.”
