At the Copenhagen bus tour on November 19, you’ll meet Mimi Larsson. She is anthropologist and works as a curator and project manager at the Copenhagen Metro project Cool Construction. The project is emerged by the construction of the new metro line Cityringen.

In Cool Construction the construction hoardings are used for art and other beneficial purposes and in this way construction site hoardings are turned into temporary urban labs for the benefit of neighbors and passers-by.

The bus tour is part of the MAB14 pre-event, hosted by Danish Architecture Centre.
