The island like a pirate island, where opening hours, tax and insurance matters can be treated differently for a period of legal adventure.</span><a style="font-family: arial;" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_3muKzEvPdBU/RzjGC0rc0gI/AAAAAAAAAJo/WtcqLrc6Bws/s1600-h/malm%C3%B6_4.JPG"><img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_3muKzEvPdBU/RzjGC0rc0gI/AAAAAAAAAJo/WtcqLrc6Bws/s200/malm%C3%B6_4.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5132069527191605762" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">Malmö Islands would be a synonym for a progressive, daring urban development agenda of an upcoming local metropolis. It has the potential of a political showcase, the malmö model. Many cities in europe face similar challenges in dealing with their post industrial waterfronts. High prize development is just one possible answer.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">Viral and humming cultural uses do seldomly stem from this type of development. Malmö Islands would be the possibility of integrating high culture and alternative drive.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">The project is ongoing. We are negotiating with the city of malmö about possible models of implementation.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:arial;">Stay tuned - we will keep you informed.</span><br /><a style="font-family: arial;" href="http://urban.passion.de/malmo_islands"><span style="font-size:85%;"><br /></span></a><span style=";font-family:arial;font-size:130%;" ><a style="color: rgb(255, 102, 102);" href="http://data.urbanpassion.de/malmo_islands">more pictures here</a></span><br /><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_3muKzEvPdBU/Rxjsd4zlWuI/AAAAAAAAAF0/ZIPX6a84k9g/s1600-h/malm%C3%B6_4.JPG"><br /></a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7520875776033406256-4236531751664204751?l=malmoar.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Martin Schwegmannhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05674943184608237846noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7520875776033406256.post-36783420952797001262008-03-01T20:01:00.004+01:002008-12-10T13:18:37.254+01:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_3muKzEvPdBU/R8mphWJi_sI/AAAAAAAAANs/C_P0AO2z0nk/s1600-h/HandInn.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_3muKzEvPdBU/R8mphWJi_sI/AAAAAAAAANs/C_P0AO2z0nk/s320/HandInn.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5172852037358124738" border="0" /></a><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;"><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-size:78%;">swedish competion entry<br />design by viviana de micheli<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /></span><br /><span style="font-family:courier new;"></span></span><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7520875776033406256-3678342095279700126?l=malmoar.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Martin Schwegmannhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05674943184608237846noreply@blogger.com0
