Posters copenhagen

Copenhagen as seen by our artists: the stepped gables, the harbour and the bicycles at the waterside. Each poster is a personal reading of travel, hand-printed on 220 gsm art paper with an anti-glare satin finish in our workshop in Grasse.

Bien choisir votre affiche Copenhague

Which Copenhagen poster should you choose?

Copenhagen comes in several registers, and they do not tell the same city:

  • Nyhavn poster: the coloured houses lined along the quay, reds, yellows and ochres.
  • Bicycle in Copenhagen poster: the city's everyday scene, a bike against a wall or a quay.
  • Copenhagen harbour poster: sailing boats, cranes, warehouses, layered planes of water and wood.
  • Copenhagen map or city plan poster: the canals, the islands, the districts traced in line.
  • Nordic design Copenhagen poster: plain flat areas, few shapes, a short palette.
  • Denmark and Copenhagen poster: coast, lighthouses, a North Sea palette.

The filters on the left narrow things down by dominant colour, by style and by mood.

Where should you hang a Copenhagen poster?

  • Living room: the Nyhavn facades in a large size, alone above the sofa.
  • Office: a plain Nordic composition, which does not compete with the screen.
  • Entrance: a map of Copenhagen, to place the city from the door.
  • Kitchen: the coloured row wakes a pale wall without loading it.
  • Hallway: a series of three Nordic capitals, same size and same frame.

Tip: a row of facades is horizontal and very colourful. It asks for a neutral wall and available width, or the colours crowd and fight.

Copenhagen poster: colourful or minimalist?

  • The colourful register holds Nyhavn: reds, yellows, reflections in the water, immediate cheer.
  • The minimalist register holds Danish design: two or three shapes, a short palette.
  • On a bare, pale wall, colour carries alone and sets the room's temperature.
  • In an already busy interior, minimalism fits where colour would add noise.

Poster, print or picture: what is the difference?

All three words mean the same thing here: a printed image that you hang on the wall. We say poster because we print on fine art paper, not on canvas or metal.

  • With frame: black, white, oak or walnut, assembled and ready to hang.
  • Without frame: the sheet alone, to slide into the frame you already have.
