TURNING TORSO
In 1999, the Spaniard Santiago Calatrava (born near Valencia in 1951) took part in the competition to build the trans-Øresund link. His project was unsuccessful, but it included a strange twisted monument on the Swedish side of the river, which appealed enough to the examiners to suggest that the architect modify it into an apartment building. The project was completed in 2005, and the 190-metre tower (the second tallest in Northern Europe) has since become so well integrated into the landscape that it has become one of Malmö's symbols.
