While walking from Stockholm's Södra Station to Medborgarplatsen, or vice versa, you will unequivocally arrive to Fatbursparken. It is a simple park but what makes it a nice place for just a relaxing walk or even a picnic is the crescent-shaped building designed by Ricardo Bofill, and known as the «Bofills båge», depicted below. The building will be on your right —if you are going towards Medborgarplatsen— or left —going towards Södra Station—. In the image you can also appreciate the «Afrodites brunn» fountain by Roland Haeberlein, sadly, off duty.

Stiftelsen Östekonomiska Institutet
This is the North wing of the Stiftelsen Östekonomiska Institutet (Institute of Transition Economics or SITE) building. I like the style of the building as a whole and I enjoy the fact that this wing was built in an Art-Deco-y kind of style, at least accordingly to my —really— poor "expert" architectural eye. The façade is very cool, I will leave it for another day.
