Built in: 2015
Client: Skanska Sverige AB
This is the new 54,000 square metres large concert, congress and hotel complex in Malmö. The building consists of a composition of cubic volumes that are mutually twisted and given different sizes to meet the directions and building heights of the surrounding city. The façades are designed with a homogeneous expression to make the composition appear as one architectonic sculpture.
The new cultural centre becomes an open, expressive and dynamic building that is manifold in both its activities and its architecture. The point of departure for the building design is the modern Scandinavian architectural tradition with the clear functional organisation and the accessible and open ground floor lay-out. The building becomes the focal point and a landmark for Malmö – a place where the spirit of the city, the diversity and the intimacy is given an architectonic expression.

Playing around with image in post. Reminds me of Hajime Sorayama's airbrush illustrations in the 80's :)
Again, this could lend itself to B&W but I liked the green so much I left it. 2 panes are hanging in there but I don't like their chances.
They say this palace looks even more spectacular in the night light. I wish I had the opportunity to see that.
