From Sydsvenskan 2004-05-22
360 million SEK. That is the total
price increase for the construction of Turning Torso,
this far. The major price increases have the following
reasons:
- Architect Santiago Calatrava
calculated the wrong amount of reinforcing iron
to use. Instead of 1850 tons of reinforcing iron,
they now calculate with using 4400 tons of reinforcing
iron. This means a huge cost increase (in the hundreds
of millions SEK), and an increased construction
time (one year extra).
- The outside steel frame has
also had its cost increase: It has become 30 million
SEK more expensive, due to the need to build a stronger
and more complicated frame than anticipated.
- The ongoing strike among
the electricians makes the construction of Turning
Torso 10 million SEK more expensive every week.
Santiago Calatrava will receive
a maximum of 51 million SEK for the work with Turning
Torso.
From Dagens Industri Weekend 2004-05-14
According to HSB Malmö, Turning
Torso is the first building in Sweden that is divided
using the new 3D legislation. The daily economical newspaper
Dagens Industi does not agree. According to them, Turning
Torso is one of the first. Before Turning Torso, Dagens
Industri mentions the following buildings:
- A care center in Staffanstorp.
- A split between commercial
and residential areas in the old city of Helsingborg.
- An underground area at the
airport of Borlänge.
From Malmö Magasinet 2004-05-13
This June, we will find out who
will be the concièrge of Turning Torso. The recruitment
is on going, and several people have announced their
interest. They are searching for a person with much
experience from working with service in different forms.
The beautifully decorated entré, together with
the concièrge, should be a big welcome home for
the inhabitants.
From Malmö Magasinet 2004-05-13
Usually, common areas for all
residents are put in places where it is not possible
to create an apartment. In Turning Torso, the common
areas are placed in the best locations in the house.
On floor 43, there are many common
areas:
- One room with a view for
spontaneous visits
- One room with a view for
booked social events
- A department for relaxation:
Gym, sauna, jacuzzi
- Extra bedrooms for guests
From Malmö Magasinet 2004-05-13
The wine cellar in Turning Torso
is situated on level -1. Each apartment has a lockable
space there, that can store 40-50 bottles. There are
also wine coolers, that can cool up to 80 bottles at
the same time, if you are going to throw a party.
From Sydsvenskan 2004-05-12
The interior work in Turning Torso
should have begun May 17th. Because of the strike among
the electricians, this date is moved forward one week.
This delay will increase the cost of Turning Torso with
approximately 10 million SEK.
- Project management still
hopes that Turning Torso's concrete core will have
reached its full height September 1st.
- The move in date has been
moved one week, and is now set to March 22, 2005.
From Sydsvenskan 2004-05-09
Who was first with the idea of
Turning Torso?
- According to HSB's home page
about Turning Torso, it was Johnny Örbäck,
the former CEO of HSB Malmö. Johnny saw the
sculpture Twisting Torso in a brochure that presented
Santiago Calatrava in the competition among architects
about the Öresund bridge.
- According to Klas Tham, the
main architect for Bo01, it was Tommy Hedlund, the
former CEO of Bo01, that came up with the idea of
Turning Torso. The board of Bo01 were introduced
to Santiago Calatrava by another architect. They
went down to Zürich and saw the sculpture Twisting
Torso. Two weeks later, there was a paper model
in Malmö. The tower was initially placed in
the south end of the Bo01 area, but it was rather
quickly moved to its current place, because the
original place did not fit well with a 140 meter
high building with seven cubes. (Later, the height
was increased to 190 meters and nine cubes, to get
a total of 90 degrees turning, without too much
turning on each floor.)
From Sydsvenskan around 2004-05-02
The electrician union has announced
a strike, that will hit Turning Torso. If the strike
is not cancelled, Turning Torso will be hit May 10.
- Currently, four electricians
are working on Turning Torso.
- From May 17, when the interior
job starts, four more electricians should start
working on Turning Torso.
- 50-60 workers will not be
able to do interior job, if the electricians are
striking.
Up until now, the construction
of Turning Torso is almost on schedule, despite the
electrician union threatened with a strike last year
too. The construction of Turning Torso is today three
days behind schedule.
From Sydsvenskan 2004-04-29
Local newspaper Sydsvenskan asked
its reader: Do you want to live in Turning Torso? 47%
said yes, and 53% said no. There were 1185 answers.
From Sydsvenskan 2004-04-29
Turning Torso will have no competition
from Scandinavian Tower in Hyllie outside Malmö
city about the title "Malmö's tallest skyscraper".
Scandinavian Tower has faced a major reduction and will
be moved closer to the new arena. Instead of 325 meters
tall with 750 hotel rooms, the building will be tre
stories high, with around 300 rooms. Turning Torso will
be 190 meters tall.
From Sydsvenskan 2004-04-27
Greg Dingizian, CEO of HSB Malmö,
is not happy with only ten sold Turning Torso apartments
at this point in time. He is thinking of renting out
a large amount, or all apartments in Turning Torso.
He wants to have many residents moving in when the construction
of Turning Torso is finished.
The rent for a Turning Torso apartment
may end up at 12 500 SEK per month for 100 square meters.
(Depending on the position in the house: Between 1270
and 2000 SEK per square meter and year.)
From Sydsvenskan around 2004-04-25
HSB Malmö was going to have
its annual meeting, but it had to be postponed until
May 9, because there was not enough information available
at the annual meeting about the construction of Turning
Torso.
Last autumn, the board of HSB
Malmö did not know how to finance the construction
of Turning Torso, estimated to cost 1,3 billion SEK.
According to the new CEO Greg Dingizian, there is no
problem with the financing. He is more worried that
only ten out of 152 apartments in Turning Torso have
been sold.

From a speech at Stadsbyggnadsforum
2004-04-19.
Turning Torso architect Santiago
Calatrava did not include the giant white pins around
the edge of Turning Torso from the beginning. When they
examined how well Turning Torso can cope with storm
winds, they found out that Turning Torso will move 0,9
meters at the top during the most severe storm. That
is too much, because that can be felt by those living
in Turning Torso.
That is when Calatrava proposed
the giant pins. Calatrava was inspired by how consturction
site lifts work, and came up with the giant pins. With
the giant pins firmly attached in the ground, Turning
Torso will only move 0,3 meters during the most severe
storm. Since this movement is small enough to go unnoticed
by those living in Turning Torso, it was decided to
add the giant white pins to Turning Torso.
From Metro around 2004-04-16:
The top four list of Sweden's
tallest buildings will look like this when Turning Torso
has reached its full height:
- Öresund bridge, Malmö,
203,6 meters
- Turning
Torso, Malmö, 190,0 meters
- Höga kusten bridge,
178,8 meter
- Kaknäs tower, Stockholm,
155,0 meter
From Sydsvenskan around 2004-04-16:
HSB Malmö has now sold ten
Turning Torso apartments, for a total of 38 million
SEK. That is three more sold apartments than in the
beginning of March.
From a letter in the box 2004-04-12
HSB Malmö tries to attract
more buyers to Turning Torso apartments by sending out
physical mail. One folder informs prospective buyers
that the waste disposal cars in Västra Hamnen will
be driven by gas produced by organic waste from the
area, from 2005. In the mail, there is also a drop-stopper
to use in wine bottles, to prevent waste of wine.

Take a photo of Turning Torso
and win a trip to architect Sanitago Calatrava's birth
town Valencia in Spain. In addition to the first price,
there is a possibility to win five other prices, in
the form of 1000 SEK worth of photo equipment.
The competition is arranged by
the Turning Torso group/HSB Malmö. Up to three
pictures per contestant is allowed. The competition
starts April 19th, and ends May 7th. The theme is Turning
Torso-the Öresund region's new landmark.
The best pictures will be shown
at exhibitions in Malmö and Copenhagen. In Malmö,
the exhibition will be held between May 29th and June
5th at the Hansakompaniet.
Worth noting is that the Turning
Torso group/HSB Malmö may use the pictures from
the competition in future publications and on the Net.
From Sydsvenskan 2004-04-07
Hard wind has recently delayed
the construction of Turning Torso with a couple of days.
HSB may suffer from additional delays, due to a needed
road redirection.
The work environment council demands
that the road crossing closest to Turning Torso is shut
down, for safety reasons, durning the construction.
To be able to close the crossing, there need to be an
alternative route, going from the helicopter airport
to the north end of Västra Varvsgatan. HSB is currently
discussing with the city about who should pay for the
construction of this road.
From an information meeting 2004-03-31
The city of Malmö wants a
safety distance of 50 meters around Turning Torso while
it is constructed. This means that the road crossing
at Turning Torso will be closed.
- Buses will drive south instead
of north of the Malmömässan.
- Cars heading for the north
part of the exhibition area has to take an even
longer alternative route: They have to take Östra
Varvsgatan up to the helicopter port, and drive
along the sea, inside the fence, until they reach
the north end of the Västra Varvsgatan.

Turning Torso will be the first
construction in Sweden that will use the new legislation
that makes it possible to partition one building into
several economical pieces, even if the parts are placed
on top of each other. The two lower cubes (10 floors,
4000 square meters) with office space will be bought
by HSB Sundsfastigheter AB in Malmö. All the other
cubes will be treated as one unit for those living in
Turning Torso. In this way, those living in Turning
Torso do not have to take the risk of owning unused
office space.
From Sydsvenskan 2004-03-27
Position Skåne has created
a poster with a picture of a traditional "spättkaka"
to attract tourists to Skåne. Over the "spättkaka"
you will find the picture text: Turning Torso. (A "spättkaka"
has a shape that is similar to Turning Torso.)
Malmö Turism is betting hard
on Turning Torso this year. According to Katarina Olsson
from Malmö Turism: A lot of groups call and book
guided tours. And many visitors at the tourist information
in Malmö ask how they can get to Turning Torso
in Västra Hamnen.
From Sydsvenskan 2004-03-27
Brf Eriksfält in Kulladal
with 300 members is thinking about buying two apartments
in Turning Torso. The members should then be able to
live for one month each in Turning Torso. They see it
as an investment, until they need the money for the
next big renovation of their own apartments. Other groups
have also asked if it is possible for groups to buy
apartments in Turning Torso. They view it as an alternative
to buying apartments for their members up north, near
the ski lifts. The CEO of HSB Malmö do not want
too many groups as owners of apartments in Turning Torso.
"Turning Torso is meant for more permanent inhabitants."
From Sydsvenskan 2004-03-15
There was an article in Sydsvenskan
the 6:th of March, that wanted to make Turning Torso
more environmental-friendly. Today, the CEO of HSB Malmö
answered, by talking about the already green aspects
of Turning Torso:
- There will be waste mills
in every apartment.
- Other kinds of waste can
be sorted close to Turning Torso.
- Waste from the construction
site is sorted already today.
- Consumed electricity and
heat will be measured individually for each apartment.
- During the construction,
they try to use environmental-friendly materials.
For instance, they avoid copper for tap water pipes.
- Turning Torso makes it easy
to live an environmental-friendly lifestyle: Those
living in Turning Torso can easily take one of the
frequent buses to the central part of the city,
and areas for recreation are within walking distance.
- All inhabitants will be offered
an environmental education especially designed for
Turning Torso.

Torso 2004-03-15
The city of Malmö has temporarily
closed the playground called "Den Lekfulla Platsen"
that is situated very close to Turning Torso. The reason
is that the city wants to minimize the risk for an accident
while Turning Torso is being built.
The city of Malmö will within
short make additional adjustments to public areas close
to Turning Torso, to keep the number of people near
Turning Torso to a minimum during the construction.

If HSB buys many apartments in
Turning Torso, it may cause increased taxes för
those who have bought an apartment in Turning Torso.
When HSB realized this, they halted their plans on renting
out apartments.
HSB is thinking of ways to rent
out apartments, without causing tax problems:
- If the residential section
of Turning Torso is divided into two parts, and
HSB only buys apartments in one part, then the other
part will not be affected by HSB renting out apartments.
- If HSB waits with buying
apartments until the construction is ready, the
tax problems will not occur.
From Sydsvenskan 2004-03-07
HSB Malmö held a meeting
this Saturday, where they informed that the result for
2003 for HSB Malmö will be negative, mainly due
to a large loss taken for the Turning Torso construction
on 350 million SEK.
From Sydsvenskan 2004-03-07
HSB Malmö has a goal of all
apartments in Turning Torso being sold at the end of
2005. To reach this goal, HSB Malmö plans to buy
50-75 apartments in Turning Torso, that they will rent
out until they can sell them. This possibility to rent
an apartment in Turning Torso is expected to attract
more foreign buyers to Malmö and Turning Torso.
From New

Calatrava has a new residential
tower in line after Turning Torso. This time in New
York, with a height of 301 meters. If it is built, it
will become one of New Yorks highest residential towers.
The developer gave Calatrava the assignment after having
seen Calatrava's sculptures and Turning Torso. You can
see a picture of the new residential tower in New York
Times article Thinking
Outside Box, Architect Comes Up With Cubes.
Calatrava wants to see sun, clouds
and shadows play over Turning Torso's facade. Calatrava's
first word when he saw Turning Torso wednesday evening
was "aah". He fell in love with his building.
Turning Torso will be shown at
the Museum of Modern Art in New York this summer, in
an exhibition of skyscrapers from all over the world.
Calatrava greets everyone living
in Malmö: "Thank you for your city, your enthusiasm
and your residential exhibition."
From Rapport (TV news) 2004-03-04
The architect behind Turning Torso,
Santiago Calatrava, visited Västra Hamnen in Malmö
today. He was really satisfied with what he saw. 10
contracts have now been signed for apartments in Turning
Torso. Calatrava would like to live in Turning Torso
himself, somewhere in the middle. Calatrava continues:
- In this case, and in many
other cases: Surprise, even the architect is surprised.
To see effectively what is the relation, to see
the shape turning up. You can imagine them, make
a rendering of them. and so on, but finally the
reality always goes beyond. I am really satisfied
and surprised.
- The most difficult is to
find a balance between functionality, security and
cost.
- I do not know somewhere else
in the world a building like that has been built.
So this is also another part of a satisfaction,
a personal satisfaction.

The architect behind Turning Torso,
Santiago Calatrava, is on his way to Västra Hamnen
to be interviewed by Discovery Channel now when they
are making a one hour special on Turning Torso. The
special is a part of the Extreme Engineering series.
The Turning Torso special will be broadcast in USA in
July, and in the rest of the world in the autumn.
Calatrava has many important things
in the air right now, besides Turning Torso:
- He is refreshing the Olympia
stadium in Athens for the 2004 Summer Olympics.
- He is building a new subway
station at Ground Zero in New York.
From Sydsvenskan and some other
sources 2004-03-03
The plan for the area where Turning
Torso is built said that here should be a high building,
with a maximum height of 75 meters. The city wanted
a high building to balance the large volume of the nearby
convention center Malmömässan.
Initially, HSB wanted to build
a 77 meter high building, but when the form of the building
with a turning of 90 degrees was decided, they realized
that they needed to build as high as 130 meters to get
seven cubes, as in the original sculpture. After that,
the number of cubes was increased to nine, to not get
too much rotation on each floor. And then, the height
finally landed on 190 meters.
The CEO of HSB Malmö is nowadays
so delighted over Turning Torso that he plans to buy
a flat for himself in the building.
From Sydsvenskan 2004-03-02
The local newspaper Sydsvenskan
asked its readers (after two large articles about Turning
Torso) if they thought HSB did the right thing when
they decided to build Turning Torso. 40% said yes, and
60% said no. 871 people participated.
From Aftonbladet 2004-03-01
The daily evening paper Aftonbladet
assigned the centerfold pages to Turning Torso this
Monday. Turning Torso is going to be the tallets skyscraper
in Sweden. According to Aftonbladet, Turning Torso will
also be Europe's tallest residential building. (But
that depends on how you define a residential building.
See Sweden's highest building.)
The attraction is naturally the
breathtaking view over Malmö, Öresund and
Copenhagen. "Most people that have booked, have
done so in the top cube" says sales manager Pia
Sandin.
According to Aftonbladet:
"While Empire State Building
will move a couple of meters when it is blowing hard,
Turning Torso will only move 0,3 meters when it is blowing
really hard. The shape of the building means that it
will not catch that much wind."
One reader of this site did not
believe the numbers given for Empire State Building.
He contacted the Empire State Building team, and got
the following answer:
"The Empire State Building
does not sway, it gives. With a wind of 110 miles an
hour, the Building gives 1.48 inches. Movement off center
is never greater than one quarter inch, thus measurable
movement is only one half inch, one quarter inch on
either side."
So much for swaying meters.
Aftonbladet also compares Turning
Torso will other famous and tall buildings in Sweden.
(This list is not complete. For instance, they forgot
Kronprinsen in Malmö, see Turning
Torso: A real skyscraper.)

From Sydsvenskan 2004-03-01
HSB Malmö takes a large economical
risk by building Turning Torso. The Torso is estimated
to cost 1,2 billion SEK. That is more than the city
of Malmö invests in schools, parks, roads and other
things during a year. So far, the construction has cost
480 million SEK. 340 million SEK has been borrowed from
the bank.
HSB Malmö has insured itself
for 200 million SEK in the guarantee fund that HSB Sweden
has. This insurance will (if necessary) cover the cost
for 50-60 unsold apartments for a period of seven years.
Another way to ease the economic burden if the apartments
are hard to sell, is to rent them out in the meantime.
The worst scenario that HSB Malmö
has calculated on, is that they will not be able to
sell half of the apartments.
From Sydsvenskan 2004-03-01
HSB Sundsfastigheter has bought
the two lowest cubes in Turning Torso for 150 million
SEK. This means a price of 38 000 SEK per square meter,
which is cheaper than the average square meter price
for the apartments (53 000 SEK) for potential buyers.
The office space will be rented out to companies.
From a tour in the area 2004-02-29
2004-02-29: The camera
man from Discovery Channel filmed the sea through the
alley in the Bo01 area before he aimed his lens towards
Turning Torso.
Recently, a large sign was added
in front of Turning Torso. The sign informs about the
main actors in the project. The reason for the sign
is that Discovery Channel will be filming Turning Torso
during 14 days. To my knowledge, they started filming
today.
From Sydsvenskan 2004-02-29
Seven contracts have been signed
for apartments in Turning Torso. Those who apply now,
can no longer decide the layout or size of an apartment.
In May, the work with the interiors will start. 1100
persons are interested in living in Turning Torso. Those
who applied first are hesitating, because the price
has increased 30%. The price increase is due to:
- The facade is more expensive
than calculated
- The quality of the kitchens
has been raised
- The mortgage is higher than
expected
The price per square meter is
the most expensive in the Nordic area. A few apartments
in central Stockholm are sold at the same price level.
Economy professors do not believe
that Turning Torso will be a good affair for HSB. They
think HSB has to lower the prices to get all apartments
sold. Their arguments are as follows:
- Malmö is too small
- It blows a lot in the area,
and the surroundings look like a construction site
- Large prestige monuments
often means losses
- Therea are nice apartments
close by to a lower price
- The Bo01 area has already
drained the market on rich people in the Malmö
area
From Sydsvenskan 2004-02-29
Right now, items for the inside
of Turning Torso is bought up: Kitchens, floors..
The three lowest cubes will be
decorated on the inside, starting in the middle of May
when the facade is ready there. At that time, 200 persons
will work at the same time on Turning Torso. To make
this possible, small things like paint and ovens will
be lifted into Turning Torso in the evenings.
The floor in Turning Torso is
made of oak from USA, that is treated in Indonesia.
The floors are then finished in USA before delivery
to Turning Torso via Hannover in Germany.
The time table seems to hold.
A risk in the time table is the wind. If it blows more
than 20 meters a second, the construction is stopped.
If the time table holds, it would be theoretically possible
to move into the lowest cubes in August 2004.
The Newsec company has been assigned
the task of finding companies that want to hire office
space in the two lowest cubes.
From Sydsvenskan 2004-02-29
NCC has had trouble selling their
apartments in the Bo01 area, close to Turning Torso.
The most expensive apartments are now sold, with large
discounts. NCC Bostad's regional manager Olle Berglind
says that it was easier to sell apartments once the
first apartment was sold. Thats why NCC sees a positive
sign in that seven apartments have been sold in Turning
Torso already.
Christian Dahlman is a project
leader at JM. He thinks that Turning Torso will find
its market outside Malmö. He also thinks that it
is interesting that HSB is willing to take the risk
of building Turning Torso.
Others in the construction sector
reason in a similar manner: Turning Torso is an exciting
construction and we are glad that HSB is going for it.

Turning Torso was commented by
Sydsvenskan today.
In addition to the positive words
in the heading above, they also have negative words
to say: Sydsvenskan finds similarities between Turning
Torso and the complete swedish construction sector's
production in the last years: Both are too expensive,
and too small. On the positive side, both Turning Torso
and swedish construction in general are rising.

Turning Torso has such a unique
appearance that computer game enthusiasts creates add-on
modules for their games, to be able to use the building
in the game. First, Turning Torso turned up in Flight

Seven panels have been mounted
on Turning Torso. Four of them can be seen in the picture
above. With a lot of imagination, you can begin to see
how the white part of the outer wall on Turning Torso
will look like, when it is ready.
If you look at Turning Torso from
the opposite direction, you will find the sharp edge.
The huge white framework for the first five-floor cube
is almost in place. The edge will have an outer wall
covered with glass, behind the framework.
Not a straight angle in sight.
Exactly as it should be, according to architect Santiago
Calatrava.

Bus stop
close to the building site.
It has happened that things have
fallen down from Turning Torso. One day, a door fell
down. The door was later found in the woods on the other
side of the road. The question is if the safety is high
enough during the construction. Shouldn't the bus stop
and the walkway be moved further away from the
construction site? Until something is done, my advice
can only be: Look up and watch out.

Per T Ohlsson is the leading political
editor at the Sydsvenskan newspaper. Here is what he
thinks about Turning Torso:
-Dead cool! The price tags are
astonishing, but I think the building will become an
institution that people will travel to, to be able to
see it.
From Sydsvenskan 2004-01-21
Those building Turning Torso want
to examine if it is possible to split Turning Torso
into two legal parts, according to the new real estate
law that became reality in Sweden this year. In this
way, the office part at the bottom can be sold separately
from the apartement part at the top. In this way, the
residents do not need to:
- Buy the commercial areas.
- Administer the commercial
areas.
- Take the risk of not-rented-out
commercial areas.
On the other hand, the residents
will not be able to get a better economy if it becomes
popular to rent office space in Turning Torso.
A film-team from the Discovery
Channel will visit Malmö in February, to make a
one-hour TV program about Turning Torso. The program
will be sent as a part of the Extreme Engineering series,
and it will be broadcast this fall, first in USA,
then in the rest of the world.
All the projects in the Extreme
Engineerings series have one thing in common: They challenge
the common definition of what is technically feasible,
and that is true also for Turning Torso.

When the photographers working
at the local newspaper Sydsvenskan chose their best
pictures from 2003, two out of twelve pictures had Turning
Torso in the picture. A construction site that wins
a beauty contest. Impressing!
The picture below is not taken
by a photographer from Sydsvenskan. It will probably
not win a beauty contest either, but there is something
interesting in it anyway.

The steel elements in Turning
Torso's steel facade weights 900 tons. Each steel element
weights between 0,5 and 28 tons. The thought was that
the manufacturer should mount the steel elements, but
it did not work well. The danish firm Promecon has been
assigned the task, with short notice.
The steel elements can not be
put in place with normal cranes, because the building
is turning. To solve the task, new and special tools
are needed:
- A lifting device mounted
on the concrete floors.
- A special welding platform,
for weather protection.
At the moment, Promecon is planning
for the task.

Copenhagen, the large danish capital
city close to Turning Torso and Malmö, will
get a building with a similar international service
concept as the one in Turning Torso. The house
is called Europahuset, and it is situated in the city
of Copenhagen, close to the new town library. Europahuset
is an old office building that now is rebuilt with exclusive
apartments. More information on: http://www.europahuset.dk/

From the Sydsvenskan newspaper 2003-12-17
Today, Sydsvenskan has an article
about building your own Turning Torso gingerbread
biscuit house. Things to think about:
- Do not build more than about
20 floors, to avoid collapse.
- Cylinder shaped pieces can
be created by bending the piece around a circular
object before the piece has hardened.
From the master thesis "Säkerhet
i höga byggnader" by Emma Lindsten 2001, Brandteknik,
Lunds Tekniska Högskola (mixed with my own thoughts).
Turning Torso is probably
a safe building:
- Sprinklers in all rooms
- Pressure increasing pumps
- Rising pipes
- Emergency elevator
- Fire gas ventilation
- Door shutters
- Fire alarm
- Smoke detectors
- Emergency electricity
- Emergency light
- Every floor and apartment
is its own fire cell
Some layman safety questions remain
unanswered, though:
The swedish fire safety regulation
for buildings is not adapted for high buildings. The
minimum safety level is not defined for high buildings.
In cuntries with greater experience
of high buildings, the regulators often require two
escape routes. USA, Great Britain and Hong Kong (but
not Australia) require two escape routes. For high buildings,
this means two stair wells. Turning Torso only
has one stair well. Is one stair well enough, from a
safety perspective?
Another safety risk is that it
is possible to open windows in Turning Torso.
There are safety barriers making it impossible to open
the window more than 0,1 meter. The problem here is
that it is possible to throw out things, and even small
things can become deadly projectiles if they are allowed
to fall over hundred meters down. The question is, is
it safe to be on the ground, close to Turning Torso?

It looked bad Saturday morning:
The party tent blew away and ended up in the woods.
Despite that, when it was time to celebrate on Sunday,
there was a tent on the correct spot and no trace of
the accident.
The outdoor exhibition close to
Turning Torso reappeared, in time for the celebration.

During the celebration, the vice
president of HSB made a speech. Among other things,
he mentioned that:
- The architect of Turning
Torso, Santiago Calatrava, has many highly visible
ongoing projects. He is creating a new station at
Ground Zero in New York. He is also the architect
behind the Olympia stadion in Athens.
- The number of persons interested
in an apartment in Turning Torso is now over
1000.
- The elevators to the apartments
in Turning Torso are express elevators. It
will for instance take 18 seconds to reach the 27:th
floor.
- The total space in Turning
Torso is 22 000 square meters. This is equal
to nine soccer fields.
- The concrete core of Turning
Torso will be finished in August or September
2004.
- The steel-carrying structure
will be finished in September or October 2004.
- The first piece of the aluminum
facade from Barcelona will arrive by truck in January
or February 2004. In total, there will be 132 truck
loads arriving from Barcelona.
- He finished by saying that
those buying an apartment in Turning Torso
is not buying an apartment in the normal sense.
One customer explained it this way: We are not buying
three rooms and a kitchen. We are buying living
space and a kitchen.

From the Fastighetsvärlden
magazine, number 4 2003
When the apartments from the Bo01
housing exhibition entered the market, the price of
apartments in exclusive areas in Malmö rised, and
Malmö as a whole got a more exclusive image.
Even though the interest for the
apartments in the Bo01 area initially was limited, the
interest for those apartments is now very large.
The question is if the attraction
of Malmö as a place of living will reach an even
higher level, when the apartments of Turning Torso
are ready.
Malmö appears more and more
as the Paris of the north, when it comes to the fascination
for large projects. The city will get a new continental
image with the Öresund bridge, Bo01, Turning
Torso, the city tunnel and Scandinavian Tower. Turning
Torso might very well turn out to be the leading
star that the Öresund region needs to reach new
levels of attraction and establish itself as a natural
centre in the north of Europe for real.

Sture will service people
living in Turning Torso, to allow them to live
the international lifestyle that they according to HSB
has chosen to live. The concierge concept is common
in towns such as London and New York.
Sture is a person representing
the ultimate kindness and the greatest possible service.
Sture is not hired yet, but the name is taken
from a legendary receptionist at the Savoy Hotel in
Malmö.
In the entrance for those living
in Turning Torso, it is possible to chat a little
before taking the elevator to the apartment. It is also
possible to sit down and have a cup of coffee, and read
a newspaper.
The service is there to give those
living in Turning Torso a more pleasant life.
A life with less stress and a greater possibility for
a comfortable spare time. Sture has told the
cab drivers how service at Turning Torso is done.
Sture has a small organization helping him. Together,
they stand for the service in the house, and they make
the building come alive.

Stefan Bergkvist decorates the
Turning Torso apartments: "Think about decorating
apartments in the Statue of Liberty. It's the same kind
of challenge to decorate apartments in a sculpture like
Turning Torso."
We are striving for calm interiors,
because all facade walls are leaning. We have tried
to create a unique Turning Torso standard. The
kitchens are specially designed for Turning Torso.
Every detail has been chosen with care. The sum of all
parts is sometimes greater than the whole.
When the project started, the
architects thought it was mostly the large apartments
that would be in demand. Now, we know that also smaller
apartments are very popular.

Turning Torso will be 190
meters high. That makes Turning Torso Sweden's
highest building.
HSB also says that Turning
Torso will be Europe's highest residential building.
That is not completely true. Skyscraper experts usually
categorize a skyscraper as for residential use if 90%
of the surface in the house is for residential use.
(See for instance skyscrapers.com
.) Turning Torso has reserved two out of nine
cubes for commercial use. This means that Turning
Torso can not be classified as for residential use,
according to this definition.
According to The
European high-rise site, Turning Torso will
be Europe's 19:th highest building. Higher buildings
can in Europe only be found in Frankfurt, Birmingham,
Moscow, London, Warsaw, Paris and Wienna.

The construction of Turning
Torso costs 250 - 300 000 SEK a day to run.
The local manager Bengt Mattson
has never experienced a project with such an architecture.
The use of folding rules is out of the question, because
there are very few straight angles.
High buildings are usually done
in steel, but the twisting shape of Turning Torso
makes it easier to build in concrete. The complete project
is technically advanced, and it is on the verge of what
is feasible to do.
The deputy local manager Bengt
Hedin compares Turning Torso with the Sydney
opera house.
From a supplement to Sydsvenskan
2003-11-22
The work tasks for the construction
workers varies with time: Form placement, casting, de-forming
and lifting of the form.
Turning Torso is in average
growing with one new floor each 10:th or 11:th day.
The bottom floor in each cube takes 16 days. The top
floor in each cube takes twelve days, and the four floors
in-between takes nine days each. At the moment, 65 persons
is working with Turning Torso, in the two working
teams.
For every floor that is built,
"fire water" follows. The fire safety becomes
especially important when the facade is going to be
mounted.
The facade, currently under test
in Barcelona, will begin to appear on the building in
the beginning of 2004.
In May 2004, the frame completion
will begin. This means painting and a lot of things
that is going into the building: Kitchens, appliances,
floors, doors...
During summer 2004, the number
of people working with Turning Torso will reach
its peak. Then, there will be up to 175 people working
with the building every day.

Iilmar Reepalu about Turning
Torso: "This is probably the most daring project
ever in Malmö. And sure, it is better to have Calatrava's
daring high-rise than the world's largest crane as a
target."
Ilmar continues: "It's visible,
stands out, and is beautiful." The building in
itself will be a great attraction. Not only as a world-unique
residential building, but also as a destination and
an outstanding artwork.
From Kvällsposten 2003-11-18
There will be a big celebration
for everyone on December 7. The skeleton for the 27:th
floor will be ready then, and it is time to celebrate
that the building has come half-way to its final height
of 54 floors.
There will be a competition, food
and drink. Johnny Örbäck (HSB's managing director)
will hold a speech, and personnel from Turning Torso
will be available to answer questions.
Kvällsposten says that Turning
Torso is Malmö's highest building. I would
add that that depends on how you are counting:
- It depends on what you count
as buildings. The St Petri church in Malmö
is 105 meters high, and the TV tower at Jägersro,
also in Malmö, is 108 meters high. Turning
Torso's 27:th floor is about 90 meters above
the ground.
- Turning Torso is not
a finished building. If we count all non-finished
but proposed buildings in Malmö, then Scandinavian
Tower with its 274 meters is Malmö's largest
building.
- Turning Torso in its
current form can more be seen as a constructional
work of art than a building, and should be compared
with other large man-made constructions in Malmö.
Malmö's highest construction is the Öresund
bridge, that has a highest height of 204 meters.

they want full service, they do not fancy garden
work, and they want to live close to the city with
all the restaurants.
- Then we have people born
in the 60ies and 70ies. Over half of the applications
come from this group
These groups are attracted by
Turning Torso for many different reasons:
- The view.
- The quality of the interior.
- The safety and the reception.
- The architecture and form
of the building.

HSB Sundsfastigheter have borrowed
100 million SEK to be able to pay for the ongoing construction
of Turning Torso. They have been promised an
additional loan on 340 million SEK. They have to find
financing for an additional 500 to 600 million SEK,
to be able to finish the construction of Turning
Torso.
There are 900 applications for
an apartment in Turning Torso. HSB wants everyone
writing a contract to pay a 10% advance. To be able
to do this, they are required to get a bank guarantee
for 75,6 million SEK, to not risk any of the money paid
in advance.
The process of writing contracts
can start, as soon as the bank guarantee is in place.
HSB thinks that with a number of contracts in place,
it will be easy to find financing for the rest of the
money needed to finish the construction of Turning
Torso.
The managing director of "Sydsvenska
Industri och Handelskammaren" Stephan Müchler
thinks that there are enough companies attracted to
the Öresund region to create a demand for the exclusive
apartments in Turning Torso.

Turning Torso:
46:th in the world
From skyscrapers.com
2003-10-30
If Turning Torso was ready
today, and if Turning Torso could be counted
as a residential building, then Turning Torso
would have shared the 46:th place on the list of the
world's highest residential buldings.
The world's largest residential
building is situated in Dubai, and has a height of 269
meters. Residential buildings higher than Turning
Torso can only be found in Dubai, Seoul, New
York City, Hong Kong, Bangkok, Sydney, Manila, Chicago
and Mexico City.
To be counted as a residential
building, 90% of the total area must be assigned for
residential use. That makes it impossible to really
count Turning Torso as a residential building,
with its 12 floors for commercial use at the bottom.

When the skyscraper enthusiasts
discuss Turning Torso, you get the impression
that Malmö is going to get a world-class attraction.
They are probably right.
- Västra hamnen in Malmö
is very well worth a visit. It is not only the Turning
Torso that is worth watching, it is a lot of
interesting projects going on out there because
they are rebuilding the whole area. And it is a
beautiful scenery, with the water so close and a
beach not far away, and also the Öresund bridge
in the background. Excellent scenery.
- I just can't wait until this
amazing tower is complete! It will truly be one
of the most fantastic buildings in the world.
- What an unusual building
it is
- This building is going to
be awesome.
- This turning torso will be
europes finest skyscraper!
- The Torso!!! wow looks great!!!
those cranes with the building looks very nice...
will become one of my favourites in the world.
- i want something like that
in Chicago
- I saw this design many years
ago in a tv show on engineering of skyscrapers.
It was an engineering exercise - not a proposal.
It was just a matter of time before an architect
implemented the idea.

Turning Torso is now getting
high enough to be used as the new orientation target
in the city. This must be celebrated with a Turning
Torso picture special! (The texts are in swedish,
but the pictures can be enjoyed anyway.)
From Skånskan (mixed with
my own reflections) 2003-09-11
The working pace at the moment
is one new floor each 9:th day. The bottom floor in
each cube takes longer time. When the construction started,
they hoped each floor would take a week. This means
that they are building approx. 35% slower than they
hoped for.
The price for an apartment is
higher on the top than on the bottom. On average, the
price is 53 000 SEK per square meter. Earlier, they
have been talking about prices around 44 000 SEK per
square meter. That's an increase with 20%.

Samark Arkitektur&Design AB
have gotten the task to decorate the interiors of Turning
Torso. They have chosen a tight and simple line.
A scandinavian style that always feels modern.
The newly hired sales and marketing
manager Pia Sandin previously worked at Berkeley Homes
in London, where she worked with exclusive residential
projects. "It's about selling a living where the
quality of living and service is put in the centre."
The two lowest cubes will be for
commercial use. Residents will occupy the other cubes,
all the way up to the 54:th floor.
In the cellar, all inhabitants
have access to their own space for storing wine.
The reception will be manned around
the clock. The reception can help with things like booking
tickets, laundry, cleaning, renting out the apartment,
order food from a restaurant, let the handyman in, take
the car to the annual check...
On the first floor, there are
8 office modules that the residents can hire.
On the 7:th floor, there will
be a room for celebrations, that can handle 50 sitting
guests. The room can be split into two conference rooms,
if needed.
There are also two rooms with
great views for the residents, at the 43:th and 49:th
floor. The 43:th floor also has overnight apartments
for guests, and a gym with a jacuzzi.

The electricity union has given
notice of a strike, that will hit Turning Torso
from June 19:th. Since there are only two electricians
working on Turning Torso today, the effects of
the strike will not be very large.
At the moment, 35 persons are
working at the same time on Turning Torso. Two
of them are electricians, and they work normal working
hours. There are 20 concrete workers and concrete reinforcers
working in shift. The rest of the personnel works with
installing ventilation in the cellar, with normal working
hours.
The electricity union motivates
the choice of Turning Torso as a target for the
strike with: "Turning Torso is a large bragging
construction site in Skåne." The electricians
are striking against the pressured building schedules,
that leads to bad health.
The 14:th floor will be created
2003-06-22. If the strike continues after that, then
it will hit the construction of Turning Torso
a bit harder.
From Metro 2003-05-21
There might not be enough wealthy
persons in Skåne to fill Turning Torso.
Turning Torso will therefore be advertised to
Swedes living abroad in Monaco, and to larger companies

Already today, we get five or
six calls each day with questions about living in Turning
Torso, despite no advertising. The writing of contracts
for individual apartments starts in a couple of months.
In spring 2005, it is time to move in.

There are 50 people working on
Turning Torso now. The pace is a little bit slower
than expected. The goal is one floor each week. Initially,
there were reports that one floor took nine days. Now,
they talk about eleven days. The safety is important.
At the moment, they are discussing if the road nearby
should be closed during the construction, because there
is a risk that things might fall down.
From a note at Studeum 2003-02-07
The construction of Turning
Torso is now progressing faster, with two working
teams. The work starts at 07:00, and ends at 19:00 every
day except Saturdays, when the work end at 17:00 instead.
