Hippos
The largest project in TOAS’s history, TOAS Hippos, will be completed in stages during 2024-2026. Hippos will have a total of ten houses, of which the first five have been completed in the fall of 2024. The next houses will be completed in the fall of 2025.
1B and 1C buildings have family apartments and completely new community studios. Community studios are 19 m2 and 19.5 m2 apartments that are part of a group of nine apartments. Each community studio has its own kitchen and bathroom, the smaller ones also have a fixed bed, for which the resident only needs to get a mattress. The common space is the living room, where you can spend time and get to know other students. Community studios are meant for only one person. You cannot bring pets to the community studios.
The other buildings will have standard studios, two-room and three-room apartments, and 5E and 5F buildings will have new types of loft apartments. Get to know all apartment types from the apartment listing and blueprints on this page.
Services will be opened in stages as the houses are completed. At the moment the saunas, laundry and laundry-lounge are in use. The parking hall is estimated to be completed in the summer of 2025.
Applications for the apartments to be completed in 2025 will be opened later.
There are water meters in each apartment, ie the tenant pays a water fee according to consumption. The water billing price is based on the water and electricity utility’s prices.
The location is completely non-smoking.
