Malmö Live

Malmö Live the new concert and congress center in Malmö. Finished in summer 2015 as apart of a larger building project incorporating upscale housing and Malmö Live buildings containing hotels, congress and conference and the concert hall with two scenes.

Here is my interpretation of these buildings. More to come as all the apartment buildings around the "Live" are not finished.

Cheers!

Architectural post processing

Trying out some new techniques to post process architectural images. Looks cool so far, but still need more practice to make it look as I imagine them.

Hope you like them, and feel free to comment and leave suggestions.

Triangeln subway station

Its been a while since I posted anything, but summer vacations and general laziness got in the way.

Got inspired when accidentally stepped down into the subway station which I generally never use, bicycle is the preferred way of transportation in Malmö and keeps you healthy. So here is a couple if images of the escalators, of course edited in a bit dramatic way, as all my images trying to make them a bit larger than real life.

Cheers

Alnarp castle

Alnarp castle

Alnarp Castle (Swedish: Alnarps slott) is located in Alnarp, Scania (Skåne), approximately 10 km north of Malmö in southern Sweden. The original castle on the property was built in the 12th century. The present building was erected in 1862, in French Renaissance style.

Back side of the castle

The first mention of the castle occured in the 12th century. In 1325 Alnarp came into the possession of a knight named Anders Pedersen, and then Aage Nielsen Ulfeldt in the early 15th century. In 1449, Alnarp passed into the ownership of Niels Stigsen Thott. The Ulfeldt and the Thott families were members of the Scanian nobility. The castle eventually passes to the Krummedige family, and in 1500 it was owned by Erik Kummedige, a cousin of Henrik Krummedige, and an advisor to the Danish king. In 1536, Christian III took possession of the castle for the Danish state.

After the treaty of Roskilde in 1658, king Charles X Gustav of Sweden gave the castle to a commandant of Malmö, Johan von Essen. In 1660, Charles XI gave it to Gabriel Oxienstierna. From 1694, it became the residence of the Governor-General of Sweden in Scania.

.

Today the castle houses offices and meeting rooms used by the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences. The castle park has the second highest variety of trees in Sweden and is open to the public all year.

Malmö Garden Show

Malmö garden show

Took a tour around the garden show in Malmö Slottspark (castle park) hoping for some interesting pictures, but the place was overcrowded. Not a chance to get some shots of the exhibitions. So I got only a few overview images, but luckily the windmill was open for visitors, so the trip was not in vain, image-wise.
