Djinn Wears Vintage
Moorish Pavilion in Malmö



The mystery of that building (see picture) which looks like Alladin's relinquished residence, finally got solved for me yesterday.
 Wandering around the hood during the winter, I was thinking what is in it, and then never remembered to properly google it. You probably know this  "shit, what did I want to look up on the internet?" feeling.

In Möllan, I was told about the housewarming party in Moorish Pavilion, so there I relocated myself.


Moriska Paviljongen has three indoor areas.
One to the left, is so well provided with discolights, it is apparently, a Nest of disco-lights or a Ministry. (If you like disco lihgts, you will like it there).
 We proceeded to the first bar, lots or air, house/electro played and some people danced. Mirrors on the walls of all shapes and sizes, framed in flowery nostalgic sort of stuff of golden colour made me think of Benjamenta Insitute. There is also a terrassy space for quieter conversations.

Just couple of days before the first party we took a picture on which Moorish Pavilion can be seen. At the time we did't know what's in it and that there will be a new place for partying.


Another room, to the right, smaller and more whiney than cocktailish attitude.
 Music was a journey into olden days, and people danced with a knowledge and accordingly to each era. Vintage.
 By 3PM everyone danced so nicely, smiled and looked satisfied that I thought 'were they all payed for being here, after all?' Only few and far between bored looking people were able to be seen in the cellar, on the way to the facilities, so I thought 'are all the uninspired ones have been put into the cellar by the restroom, purposely, to keep better vibe upstairs?'

The middle room is a proper concert place, apparently constructed as a cinema sale. More nightclubbish atmosphere compare to the touching 'The Cherry Orchard' twang of both side areas.
 Together with general coziness, the place still keeps a bit of a sentimental mood of the past, probably from days it was built in 1902. What was Malmo like in those days? Before the first human get to the orbit of our Earth, before iPhone 4 came out... awh, those walks to Folkets Park then, awh.

Get back to present time, Moorish Pavilion.

To make  a long story short, Malmo Buzz and Malmo Pride were here.
People were beautiful, dressed in a pleasant manner, but in a non dramatizing way.
