In the new head office the company presents its new product range and offers repair service. On the ground floor of the building there is the sales division, on the first floor the exposition area and the repair shop. All administration offices are located on the second floor. The overall impression of the structure is a homogenous and closed building. Nevertheless, there exists a separation between the public and the private sector. The client can perceive this clear and formal internal division already from the outside. The glass façade on the Northern side provides a maximum of visibility and transparency to the exhibition and sales area. The private spaces such as repair offices, stockrooms and offices have their façades exposed to the South, East and West which are protected with a sun screening system. In order to establish an optimal relation between natural light, development and planning of spaces there has been created a luminous entrance hall in the centre of the building with an inner courtyard. This green open spot permits the administrative sector of the second floor to receive ample natural light and at the same time it generates a protected, quiet recreation area for the staff.

Warehouse and commissioning are situated on the ground floor whereas administration, a meeting room and a showroom can be found on the upper floor. The aim of the project was to create a compact building with a high level of recognition. The building as corporate identity of the enterprise; contemporary and representative of the company. This has lead to a functional, compact structural shell, provided with a glass envelope. The main building material employed is wood First Floor Plan in order to show the own products.

  • Dark Matter White Space
    Dark Matter, White Space Ezana Mussie Urban Studies Two-year Master 30 Credits Spring 2019 Supervisor: MustaFa Dikeç Abstract: This thesis addresses the ambiguous role of Malmö’s latest megaproject in the context of the city’s racializing urban development trajectory. The project is a public/private congress center, concert hall and hotel complex called Malmö Live. Malmö Live is problematized as the height of spectacle and challenge as it is expected to be the city’s most prominent cultural and social meeting place. The inquiry is directed to how its expectation of relevancy came about and utilizes a Foucauldian inspired genealogical methodology. The result stems from an investigation of the historical, present, local and global conditions that constitutes the expectancy of its relevancy. The investigation notes the divisiveness of tourism and how it affects ways of thinking and doing government on multiple scales, and in particular how it motivates the case in question. The result shows that there are affinities between tourism- during-colonialism and the contemporary tourism industry. Where the former was appropriated by colonialism and overtly racializing, the latter is allowed appropriacy by a currency ascribed to selected geographies and histories. By describing the becoming of this megaproject and the use of tourism knowledge and technology, the how-question about the expectation of Malmö Live’s relevancy leads to a genealogical reconstruction of Malmö Live as a wager on whiteness. The wager on whiteness hold no guarantees, but the power of it is the ability to be persuasive and believed, and the currency it holds for those who perform it.

And not only for its arrival, like clockwork, every 730 days (every other August) as the rolling index of curatorial (much more than material, social or spatial) instincts within the world of architecture. The biennale’s importance today lies in its vital dual presence as both register and infrastructure, recording the impulses that guide not only architec- ture but also the increasingly international audienc- es created by (and so often today, nearly subservient to) contemporary architectures of display. As the title of this elegant book suggests, ‘architecture on display’ is indeed the larger cultural condition serving as context for the popular success and 30- year evolution of this remarkable event. To look past its most prosaic features as an architectural gathering measured by crowd size and exhibitor prowess, the biennale has become something much more than merely a regularly scheduled (if at times unpredictably organised) survey of architectural experimentation: it is now the key global embodiment of the curatorial bias of not only contemporary culture but also architectural life, or at least of how we imagine, represent and display that life.

Chachula Bachelor of Architectural Engineering The Pennsylvania State University Committee Chair: Jay Chatterjee Committee Second Chair: Elizabeth Riorden Abstract Being mobile means having the ability to easily access goods, services, information and people from other physi- cal locations. Traditionally this meant traveling from place to place or building to building. With the computer and the internet, however, it is possible to do these things all from one single location regardless of where we are on Earth. This is Digital Mobility. Today with the internet this takes place through a screen using a mouse and keyboard as opposed to through experiencing a variety of buildings and spaces. Architecture for the digital lifestyle will merge our digital experiences with physical experiences by providing a reconfigurable environment that allows us to truly inhabit the internet. Instead of experiencing the internet through the screen it is experienced through the building and the space we inhabit. In this way there is access to many dif- ferent places and environments from one single location.

  • Law Libraries in Sweden
    Law Libraries in Sweden Law libraries have been built up at universities, research centres, central authorities, courts and major law firms. Information about their collections, reference services and target groups is provided through the website of each library. Free access to the law library catalogues is given online via Libris “websok. libris.kb.se/websearch/form?type=simple”, the union catalogue of Swedish research libraries. Rättskällan “rask.ub.uu.se/rattskallan.cfm?eng” is a free gateway with inter- net resources of high quality. It is a result of cooperation between law libraries in Sweden. BIBSAM, the Royal Library’s Department for National Co-operation and Development “www.kb.se/ENG/kbstart.htm”, has on behalf of research libraries in Sweden signed license agreements for the use of commercial databases. As central agreements often provide better conditions than agreements reached locally, there is reason for continuing the work building consortia. Below is a compilation of Swedish law libraries. Göteborg University Library/Economics Library Visitors’ address: Vasagatan 1 Postal address: Box 670, SE-405 30 Göteborg Telephone +4631 773 1431 Fax: +4631 773 4926 “www.ub.gu.se” History Under the name of the Economics Library the library at the School of Business, Economics and Law was incorporated with Göteborg University Library in 1971. The present beautiful building, accomplished in 1995, was designed by the architect Peter Erséus and the interior designer Pelle Frenning. They were both awarded the 1995 Kasper Salin Prize for their work. The Economics Library provides services to 7,000 students and a staff of 500 at six departments of the School of Business, Economics and Law.
