Diploma Days 2026, KTH School of Architecture

Diploma Days bring together graduating students from KTH School of Architecture and its associated programmes, to showcase thesis projects spanning architecture, lighting design, urbanism, and related fields.

During the summer sessions, the School opens to both the public and the wider KTH community, offering access to the full range of thesis work. Invited jury members, students, and staff come together for presentations and discussions addressing contemporary topics in architecture.

Historically, important documents like diplomas were written with care, time and a bit of ceremony. This thought became a way to treat the letters as heavy, shaped, layered and a a bit too much perhaps. Almost like contemporary calligraphy, but built out of digital shapes, masks and architectural blobs. The forms also borrow something from the school itself, its rounded building and the many different projects, questions and voices that fill it during Diploma Days.

The posters were designed by Frostner Studio (Martin Frostner and William Vellinga). Thanks to Janek Ozmin and KTH School of Architecture.
