- Join me as I explore Copenhagen’s newest metro stations, each featuring unique and captivating art installations. From astronomical clocks to quirky Escher-like designs, these stations transform everyday commutes into an artistic journey. Discover the stories behind the art and the artists who brought these vibrant spaces to life!
Enjoyed your video. I visited Copenhagen from Wales, last month. I wasn't aware they had (or needed) a Metro. I was and am still extremely impressed by it. I think it surpasses what I've seen in H.K and the Far East's systems. All of this art and architectural styling would have cost more and complicated the building processes - and they still chose to include them! - Very much a hidden gem and something for Denmark to be quite smug about, actually.
Havneholmen is astonishing! Like walking into an Escher world. This sort of civic art project is so important, and I wish it were more common in the UK. Walking around a city and seeing constant reminders that people can do beautiful work like this is undoubtedly good for the soul.
@@macronencer it reminds me of Escher too! i’ll go back again when all the signs are working and see if i can get some dramatic angles for maximum confusion! i completely agree with you on the importance of public art.
Art in public places just lightens up everything - regardless of style or theme. It's sort of the epitome of "culture" IMHO. We need much more of it all over Denmark and the world. Very nice video - funny that it takes a "foreigner" to show this to a Dane, living 30 minutes south of Copenhagen.
Wow what a finale! That is worth a visit for sure.
What a great little surprise it was to stumble upon this video, your style is relaxing yet engaging, and the videography is great with everything tied together by snappy editing at a good pace. I hope there's more to come!
@@Mark_Hafer thank you so much for those wonderful compliments, appreciated!
Yes , the upside-down one is really original ! Thanks for the beautiful video !
Love our new Metro stations and the completely different artwork in each. They are an absolute masterpiece, I had no idea they would be so cool.
@@BobDazify i’m so impressed. it really makes me happy too!
You exitement is infectious, thank you for this video!
That was the nicest presentation of anything Copenhagensk I've seen. I moved in in 1980. I think all the new stations are right nice, but being a planet lover, København Syd is my favourite.
Bangin video Aimee! Appreciate your honesty while praising the installations. I'm delighted with my new local Sydhavn stations. Havneholmen is so bold I'm surprised they were allowed to do it because it's basically anti-design in a space that, functionally, is so much about design, streamlined wayfaring, not confusing anyone etc... it's a brave contradiction! My favourite, though, may be Mozarts Plads just because of the atmosphere created in the station cave, it speaks to me somehow. And the transfomation done up on street level is really positive. The public square is welcoming to hang out at, and there's wildflower beds and a water fountain: +1 to wildlife diversity!
@@pindebraende all of it is so good. i absolutely love it!
Great production. Your video-editing skills are good. The sound quality is good as well.
@@QUBEATZ thanks! i really do enjoy video editing. eh, the sound could be better. i have a lapel mic but i hate using it. maybe i should invest in a wireless mic.
i was going to say the first one is my favourite because i love astronomy, but the last one looks like something from the movie inception, so so cool!
@@RealityMixer heheh yes it is truly fantastic! 😁
i loved this video!! the out of childhood artwork was so cool and the last one with everything upside down is amazing !!! they’d never do anything that exciting in the uk :’(
@@zoebreadtube yeah i was thinking the same… on no, can’t put a clock sideways that goes at the wrong time, people in the uk wouldn’t be able to handle that! 😂
Definitely love the last one with the clocks and the upside-down check-in machines, I haven't seen any of the new stations yet!
it's so cool. i'm so pleased that they were allowed to do it. some the check-in machines were actually lit up, so i imagine they'd work .. if you could reach them! some displays were not working yet, i think it'll look even more fun when they're showing departure information but sideways!
Thanks for the presentation Aimee. Living in this area, the blend of urban art and transportation on the M4 simply brings so much joy. Well worth a visit!
As now living in Taastrup I have only used the Metro a few times! But I think about bringing my Brompton and roll round from a Station at times, to look at things!
My favorite by far Enghave Brygge ❤️❤️❤️ Love the integration of the art in the function of the station. Much of the art in the other stations feels performative, unnecesarily complicated. But even so I realy, realy, realy love this approach in public transport. It’s so important that we dare to maken public spaces beautiful. Congrats Copenhagen. This city is a beacon of hope for a brighter futurum 👍👍👍
I live outside of Central Copenhagen and don't know anyone who lives in that part of the city, so I don't presently have much reason to use the M4 line's southern branch, but your excellent video makes me wish to go there soon just for the experience.
We've only ridden on the 2 and 3 lines, but this is REALLY cool to learn about. We had no idea that the metro was so young!
Wow, those are really interesting and very cool metro stations.
I also love your style of presenting:
Very nice, brief and interesting narration and you are so happy and positive. I love it.
You are a great story teller.
@@OnkelJajusBahn thank you so so much. those comments mean a great deal to me!
Interesting 🤔
Your Danish is really good
tak skal du have!
They all look beutiful, but I dont think any metro system beats stockholm when it comes to art
i still need to visit Stockholm! 😅
@@aimeeriversIts really easy to travel between copenhagen and stockholm, SJ has pretty frequent high speed trains between both cities :)
I have to be a little boring here, I prefer the old stations because the wall treatments are mat it feels calming and look more exclusive where as the shiny materials look cheap and outdated like something from 1960 , I do however like the art work all of them actually, but I would have loved for the walls to be better materials and that could have been done in colors also
The designs are not practical and very bland and not interesting at all. I'm not impressed, but thanks for sharing.
You must be fun at parties.
