Playtype

The best way to describe this unique little store is as a "typography playground" that far not only graphic designers will find entertaining. What's on display here is the result of experimenting with all sorts of prints, and the items on sale are products created by a Danish brand and design agency e-Types.

Shopping

Copenhagen is great for shopping, both because of the variety of the shops and because the city is compact. Start your shopping trip in the inner city. On Strøget, you will find most of the big chain stores and more exclusive shops. Stroll down the small streets parallel to Strøget and Købmagergade where you will find vintage shops, Danish designers such as Wood Wood, Malene Birger and Henrik Vibskov, and small jewellry and ceramics shops. Streets outside the inner city that are worth checking out are Istedgade, Gl. Kongevej, Elmegade, Jægersborggade and Østerbrogade. Enjoy, and remember your walking shoes.
