The unmistakable Lilla Bommem building stands on the banks of the Göta ävl River in the city centre area of the same name. The building is commonly known by locals as Läppstiftet (The Lipstick), meaning lipstick. It earned this nickname because of its red and white colour and appearance.

The building was built in 1989 by the developer Skanska. It has 22 floors, measures 86 metres and offers facilities for up to 1,000 workers in 32,000 m2 of office space.
