The exhibition participants have staged an itinerary through central Copenhagen divided into five legs each telling the story of Copenhagen as a green, clean, easy and dense city by emphasizing and manipulating elements taken for granted knowledge that makes (or does not make) Copenhagen a sustainable city. The exhibited projects are all temporary and site specific and created especially for Copenhagen Design Week. Below you find short describtions on each project.
