Copenhagen's metro was opened in 2002 and before that, Copenhageners travelled by bus or the local trains (S-trains) The Metro is very futuristic, with automatic trains and a very minimalistic and modern type of architecture. I rarely travel by Metro, but when I do, I miss something pretty to look at, instead of all the ads. The Stockholm subway has alot of art (you can actually get guided tours to all the underground art!) some of it is great, and this is a favourite of mine. It's at the central station and was made by the artists Signe Persson-Melin and Anders Österlin in 1956-57. Totally inspiering, at least for a graphic designer ;)
