to the artists, designers and craftspeople who think I call their work kitsch... this is NOT the case, it refers to my own work

day trip to Malmö - Sweden

Another trip of less than an hour by train takes us under and over the sea to Malmö Sweden.

I love the Kopenhagen-Denmark central station.


It is the worst day of our stay in Scandinavia, a gloomy, cold, wet and windy day, but we'll make the best of it.


Very bike-friendly countries, many people use them.


A jolly marching band shows us the way to the city center.  The sculpture Optimistorkesten by Yngve Lundell.


Gnomes on a housefront seem less optimistic.


This must be the tiniest shop I've ever seen.


Old and new mixed in the busy shopping street.


In the historic center, one of the oldest houses in town.  Behind the gate is the Form/Design Center.


We'll walk through this gate in the next post.
