- Back to my photo study of the Stockholm city hall. Here is the lovely wooden ceiling in the council chamber, it looks really warm and cosy but also filled with amazing decorative art.
Cyclist in Copenhagen, Denmark
Copenhagen is more or less the capital of cyclists in Europe, at very close competition with Amsterdam. Everybody rides a bike here no matter the weather or the time of day.
This photo was taken on a rainy summer day. The Black Diamond building can be seen in the back.

Long exposure with the house done with a Mini Maglite and the surroundings lit with a Canon 380 EX speedlight on second curtain.
Art Deco architecture is practically non-existent in Sweden, so I was glad when I found this Art Deco-inspired building, just around the corner from where I live.
courtyard wing to södra storgatan 31, helsingborg, sweden 1915.
architects: sigurd lewerentz (1885-1975) and torsten stubelius (1883–1963).
talk about modest beginnings. this could give us an idea about the missing windows in the pålsjö forest pavilion, though.
lewerentz won the competition for the forest cemetery in stockholm with asplund the same year.
This building was designed by Calatrava, the same architect responsible for the City of Arts and Sciences I photographed earlier this year in Valencia Spain.
A very busy area in Stockholm, this is Årstastråket where 3000 new homes are under construction. This ugly thing will house 96 students and one pre-school.
This build depicts a stereotypical block from a fictional Swedish row house suburb. Almost identical red houses, a small playground and a green area with a football (soccer) field create an idyllic atmosphere. Despite - or maybe because of - this, blocks like the above have often served as setting in many Swedish behind-the-curtains-drama films and television series about dark family secrets. Who knows what lures behind the peaceful facade?

Emporia was designed by Wingårdhs, one of Sweden’s most internationally recognized firms of architects. Despite a period of financial unrest, cold winters and rainy summers, construction has gone according to plan since starting in February 2008.
Emporia is a shopping center in Malmö, Sweden with a total floor space of 93,000 square meters that combines shopping, food, art and design over three floors. There are also 11,000 square meters reserved for offices. Emporia is the first shopping center in Sweden with BREEAM environmental certification. On the roof of Emporia shopping center is a rooftop park that is open to the public. As well as being a viewpoint, the park is also a major part of Emporia’s environmental strategy.
villa herneryd, laröd, helsingborg, sweden 1961.
architects: jørn utzon (1918-2008) with ARTON (partners erik and henry andersson).
...put your ass to the street, and you smile to the canyon, was craig ellwood's famous dictum on the modern house.
villa herneryd, utzon's home for the boss of höganäs, does just that, but the cantilevered roof above the entrance is exactly the kind of tail to make an architect curious.
unfortunately, villa herneryd is even more private than the nearby villa banck and we will have to make do with a plan and an internet aerial to make sense of this girl.
