they're to be used to green energy solutions and reforestation. they create interactive content teaching the next generation about environmental protection and we're determined to build something here for the next generation. one to use the multimedia environment series on t.w. . come to your max fish and make you happy that's one of the questions we're answering on our show today but let's first have a quick look at what else is coming up. a remarkable woman friends artist before swazi new has published a new book with travel skeptics. pop music hero british singer rick astley is back

with a new album. sounds precious time pieces we've visited last week to increase in germany which is famous for its watchmaking tradition. to sell folk heroes is a lot of fun but does fashion really make you happy we wanted to find out more and went to copenhagen on the one hand because the biggest fashion week in northern europe is currently in full swing there and that's because according to the world happiness report the danes are always among the happiest people in the worlds that the so-called scandal have something to do with it let's find out. this year's copenhagen fashion week is a showcase of what's come to be known as scanty stock thirty three designers from around scandinavia are presenting their creations for next summer in the audience is danish fashion reporter symon henning she knows. the way around europe's count

walks and can tell us what's unique about fashion from the north to nagin fashion you can if you wear it it doesn't it's not so complicated you can mix it in different ways and if. it's like it's good every day you can use it if not why only papaji from the weekend not to use it every day we pike around and even then we'll see what it is that you have it really kind of easy going and laid back into the fashion so scandinavian style is comfortable and stylish these principles have guided designers at labels like ghani or some soon sound soon as well as newer competitors will swallow and launch. a young fashion capital city but that said we still have a really good approach to having this kind megan all to me it's like being at a personal style everybody is kind of that find the own personality and i think that's kind of give us a lot we don't just want to know the girl with the bat i want to be the one who i trust to the things in our own direction wardell way. the danes like to be cosy and

comfortable. as they say the humans world happiness report often places the danes ahead or just behind the norwegians and finns as the world's happiest people just danish fashion reflects that just scandinavian fashion make people happy people don't seem stressed out much behind the scenes here at the fashion week whether for the label blushes opening show or at the whole speil or naples not even when things have fallen behind schedule. then months less than if you let stress take over nothing good can come of it anyway that's why it's so important for us to keep calm and achieve our goals think of. the designers are often inspired by street style so alongside more natural tones lots of vibrant hues seen on the streets of europe's northernmost cities we're on the catwalk at cope and. you can

fashion week it's a concept that resonates with customers. personally and makes me very happy it's a way for people to express themselves and also for me so it makes me have it to see all these different clothes and different styles that they put out there i just enjoy dressing up really nice i just think it makes me feel good when i look good as i think fashion makes. because it's about colors it's expression on people you know that what you wear is the kind of making a signal and i think it has a huge impact on how we approach and look at people it makes you happy because it's a way to express yourself and a week to show the world who you are and there's no wrong way of doing it it's just showing your personal style i think question can also it can also make you

feel a lot of other things because it's also an art form i think but for me definitely it can create some kind of happiness. so what makes the scandinavian designer so successful does being in a good mood help you be more creative. i didn't from blanche says it does. to me inspiration is everywhere but i think i work best when i'm happy and i work best when i'm out monk people i work best in a friendly happy environment and with people i love and trust because i put my work my marks down and i open my senses and to me that's the best way to be creative with joy and positivity are very important to us both in the way we live and how we create our collections. but there's more to it than that according to me a couple good work a designer and some suit and stamps. were definite to sign for people to being able

to move around to bicycle to work. to make their life easier. and maybe in that way make them happy about that they signed in the end. everyone here seems to agree fashion can make you happy a simple message that will hopefully make its way from copenhagen fashion week to the rest of the world. where here in berlin at the moment is very clear clothes that are as areas possible it is just unbelievably warm in the german capital but also elsewhere in europe more now in today's express. as temperatures hit over forty degrees celsius in the shade in rome city authorities are offering free mineral water to tourists and residents. between eleven in the morning and four in the afternoon bottles of being distributed at

know painted before she met the castle and continued afterwards for the rest of her life for her that creation was a form of self affirmation. or works reflect the spirit of a century they're neither radically abstract nor comfortably figurative but emphasize color space and rhythm she love followed her own path. bending is it is essentially they would not bend they would not be. that's what i can say. does it has nothing to do with where my bending is good or bad oh so excess food or whatever venting is a kind of need like somebody needs to eat up the drain. smother
