Turning Torso
The landmark skyscraper in the Øresund region, situated in Malmø in Sweden. Built between 2001 and 2005 and architected by Santiago Calatrava, a man also known for the Olympic Stadium in Athens. 54 floors and standing at 190 meters, the building's architecture was inspired by a sculpture with a turning motion ba a human being, hence the name. As there are no other skyscrapers in the region - this really stands out. And watching it - one gets all twisted in the head too. ;-) August 2008.
