DSB Byen
Organized by Martin Ransby, Rasmus Folehave Hansen and Anders Gerning
DSB Byen (The DSB Village) is a homage to the repair and maintenance facilities of the Danish National Train Service located in southwestern Copenhagen. Built in 1909, the Village assumed a vital role in supporting Denmark’s economic growth during the 20th century, but has since been a sleepy industrial oasis where the workers of times past have been replaced by unwelcome visitors who sneak through the fences when no one is looking. The project DSB Byen is a book, published in 2015 (second edition 2018) by Ransby Editions, and an exhibition in conjunction with Copenhagen architecture festival (CAFx) 2016.
