Malmö University was established in 1998 as part of Malmö's strategy to transform from an industrial city into a knowledge-based city. The university is located on the former shipyard area along the harbor, which has been redeveloped into a mixed-use waterfront district. Malmö University has five faculties and over 24,000 students, helping strengthen Malmö's workforce and economy through new educational programs. The presentation discusses Malmö University's role in Malmö's revitalization from an economically depressed city in the 1970s-1990s to an innovative city today.
CELLUWOOD Final Workshop 4th September 2014 Lleida, Spain
WORKSHOP on “Laminated Strong Eco-Material for Building Construction Made of Cellulose-Strengthened Wood - Final Outcomes”
You are invited to the final workshop of the CELLUWOOD project which will be held at the Catalan Institute of Wood in Lleida, Spain. During the workshop comprehensive outcomes of the CELLUWOOD project will be presented. New technologies and final products for the construction and timber manufacturing industries and other stakeholders will be showcased in real life timber construction.
CELLUWOOD project brings into existence a new range of low carbon, reliably strong building construction materials made of wood and based on innovative technology applications.
The CELLUWOOD products include strong glulam Eco-beams and columns manufactured by using bio-based lignin resins and nanocellulose enhanced glue systems. Both innovative building products provide significant environmental benefits.
Coordinator and responsible of the project at AIDIMA: Miguel Ángel Abián
In the case of AIDIMA, this project is co-funded by IVACE (Instituto Valenciano de Competitividad Empresarial) and by the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF).

The Worcester Library and History Centre: a Shared Vision, a Single Community
Roger Fairman, University of Worcester (UK)
The Worcester Library & History Centre (WLHC) is, we believe, a globally unique project. It will bring together five information based services with the aim of providing the people of Worcester and its surrounding region with an integrated facility that will combine the main library of the University of Worcester, the Worcester Central Public Library, The Worcestershire County Record Office, the Worcestershire County Archaeology Service and the Worcester City Customer Service Centre (one-stop-shop for inquiries about local government services).
Apart from the range of services involved, other significant elements of the project include: the high degree of integration; its desire to inspire users through high quality architecture to explore services they have not used before; and its stringent environmental targets. The physical location of the building will allow the design to emphasize links between the University and the City acting as a bridge between the two, reflecting one of the projects core concepts; that all the present and potential users of these services are not one dimensional entities but rather multi-faceted individuals.
By June 2009 the project will be into the build period with a target of the first users walking through the doors in 2011. This paper will describe the design journey undertaken by the project team, illustrating how they & the wider staffs of the five services have, and are, working together to meet the many challenges presented by this exciting vision, and some of the solutions proposed in the final design.
