Copenhagen will buzz with design experiences, activities and debates as the first Copenhagen Design Week unfolds from 27 August through 6 September 2009. With the theme of sustainable design, you’ll get new insights into where design is today and where it’s going.

By presenting design in new and novel ways, at Copenhagen Design Week you may find yourself pedalling to power a drinks blender at a CO2-neutral festival, or acquiring new knowledge at a cradle-to-cradle conference, or checking out the finalists in competition for the world’s largest design prize. So tour the city to see, hear and participate in new design thinking and the latest trends.

”WHAT WE NEED IS NEW SOLUTIONS – NOT PROHIBITIONS AND DICTATES AND DRAB PRIVATIONS. WE WILL HAVE SMARTER TRANSPORTATION, CLEANER ENERGY SOURCES. WE CAN HAVE THE SAME, ONLY WITHOUT THE NOISE AND AIR POLLUTION, WE CAN CREATE INTELLIGENT HOMES, WE CAN SEND TECHNOLOGY TO DEVELOPING COUNTRIES, WE CAN CREATE GREEN GROWTH. BINDING GOALS ARE OBLIGATIONS REQUIRING SOLUTIONS THAT TRIGGER INNOVATION AND RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT.” CONNIE HEDEGAARD, THE DANISH MINISTER FOR CLIMATE AND ENERGY

“WE NEED TO MOVE AWAY FROM OBSOLETE NOTIONS OF SUSTAINABILITY AND GROWTH AS EACH OTHER’S OPPOSITES. DANISH COMPANIES ARE AMONG THE MOST ENERGYEFFICIENT IN THE WORLD, AND AT THE SAME TIME THEIR VALUE CREATION IS IN THE INTERNATIONAL ELITE.

MEKANO CITY:

Mekano City emphasizes experiences that go unseen

and questions the idea of the city as a static structure. Through three interventions on the route, the project encourages playful perspectives on city spaces and their transformation. Starting point: Højbro Plads <-> Danish Design Centre (HC Andersens Boulevard 27). (Made by: Louise Hold Sidenius/ Typografisk afdeling, Mia Scheel Kristensen, Ronald Laurits Jensen).

THE POCKET PARK:

The Pocket Park is a patch of grass, shade

and quality of life in the midst of the city. The Pocket Park is such a good idea that you wonder why it hasn’t been done yet… Starting point: Kgs Nytorv <-> HAL-D (Strandgade 95). (Made by: Christina L. Halstrøm, Sandra Jouatte, B14 Morten Sholz, B14 Rasmus Høymann Laursen).

CITY INTERCOM:

Citizens have adapted steps around town as an

informal piece of furniture for conversation and gathering. The project takes this change from pragmatic function to a means of social interaction further through a series of newly created steps. Starting point: Danish Design Centre (HC Andersens Boulevard) <–> Hotel Skt. Petri (Krystalgade) (Made by: Anne Haaning/Manstrem, Inger Margrethe Larsen, Morten Emil Engel).
