During our stay at Malmö few weeks ago, we stayed next to the World Trade Center and only a few hundred meters from the Turning Torso building. This is a very cool apartment and it is Sweden's tallest skyscraper and Europe's 3rd tallest residential building.
Whenever I look at the reflection from the big windows at the Riksäpplet (Campus Haninge) building they show me something new. The dancing building is Najaden at the Rudsjöterrassen in Handen.

Here is Sweden's national stage for opera and ballet, The Royal Swedish Opera, designed by architect Axel Anderberg and inaugurated in 1898. The building has undergone some minor changes exterior through the years. 1955-1961 a rotunda was built. Architects for this was Peter Celsing and Nils Tesch.
But now the opera has received another extension, this time on the roof. It is "The Cube", a temporary restaurant pavilion that was built on the roof of the Royal Opera. The company Electrolux and the Royal Opera took the initiative to this project.
The restaurant will be available between 18 June and 21 October 2012.
According to the National Property Board, Statens Fastighetsverk (SFV), is it the first time that a historic building in Stockholm has been used in such a way for marketing. The Stockholm Beauty Council, Stockholms Skönhetsråd, did not like the initiative and warned that listed buildings can be advertising spaces for major corporations.
