even if the art deco lamps are better here, copenhagen was much more livable for me. ready to come home (tomorrow!).

fast-sloppy, but i figured today could be photo free.

~friday~

you play this mural like twister.
supportive/assisted living area: graffiti remediation.

~thursday~
met with the environmental and transportation planning departments.
the day included a brief bicycle tour to a new community under construction, ørestad, on the urban fringe.

Affordable housing (well, 50% was market rate).


Articulation.


The mountain, by Bjarke Ingels, housing atop a parking structure for the community.


Student housing.
Some large-scale designs, but all within a short bicycle ride of downtown and loaded with fine grain and nice landscapes for people.

kosmetisk landskab

took the train north to the lousiana museum this afternoon; they had a huge picasso collection,

beautiful room with several giacometti pieces (panorama),


installation artwork, enclosed room with mirrors and water, leds changed colour slowly (also explains the patchwork quality of the time-sensitive panorama).


incredible sculpture garden next to the sea


we rode back along the coast (omaha folks would be forgiven for thinking this was near boyer chute nwr)


exploring


even bird watching towers are well-designed

this wall has been around

hard to top picasso and a bici ride in one day.

travel hiatus

i'll be in copenhagen until the end of the month. depending on how it goes, i may upload a photo or sketch or two in the meantime. regularly scheduled bay area mixed terrain programing will resume in earnest when i return (and it doesn't seem like i'll be missing much more than 2 weeks of rain in the bay, either).
