Today, Lund is the only remaining Swedish city where SonyEricsson mobile-phones are being developed. Major cutdowns have struck the company in 2009. Hopefully, the new line of smart-phones will bring SonyEricsson back to its feet.

IKEA Flag ship store in Kungens Kurva, Stockholm. Ingvar Kamprad founded IKEA 1943 and is now the fifth richest person in the world. He made his fortune from stubborn, hard work and have managed to keep on the right side of infamous Swedish Jante Law. Show me a home in Sweden that do not contain a single object from IKEA. I would say that in Sweden IKEA has a symbolic part in growing up, getting a place of your own with a following nuclear family.

Malmö is an old industrial town which has undergone a transformation into a modern city in just over a decade. Remainders of the past can still be found though, scattered everywhere. The shipyard “Kockums“ was once one of the city’s largest employers – today only small bits still remain. Large parts of the vast areas have been taken over by other activities. The old dock ramp, for instance, has now been partly rebuilt into a famous outdoor skate park - ”Stapelbäddsparken”.

Swedish electricity anno mid 19th century - hydroelectric power. Once, before 1951 when the mighty gorge Harsprånget at the river Luleälven was dammed, this magnificant river had rapids that was roaring so loud it enticed artists from far and beyond to paint and photograph it.
Today this river and many other are tamed and silent. The only sound are from the turbines at the powerstations.
