So PB43 is a repurposed warehouse complex that the Danish govt. has essentially given to a group of artists by allowing them to occupy the space for 6 years, they have been there for 2 already. Now the remaining 4 years they have been allowed more freedom to do what they want with the space and are making some really cool moves.

There are about 120 resident artists with studios in the complex as it is now and they have some really cool plans to expand now that they have the green light. The Danish govt. is giving these spaces to artists to repurpose and bring back to life. There are others in the works, however PB43 is by far the most active.

A friend of the Forest Room 5, is friends with the people who run PB43 and invited us out to check out the space and perhaps invest in opening a small cafe in one of the warehouses. This place is a really cool opportunity and a great example of how we can put to use old empty spaces within our cities.

So I got to go to Denmark, check out PB43 and perhaps another Forest Room will open up in Copenhagen...

Proposed Forest Room 4 would be the bottom floor on the right, where the 3 windows are with mercedes in front 



Business meetings on the roof are always cool. 














FR4??
