The blue trompet
And where did the light come from, so filled with life. The trumpet had regained some of its lustre, as if the dust had melted away, but little by little he stopped wondering.
Den Blå Trompet [ The Blue Trumpet ] is my design studio – and the title of a short story written back in the 1980’s when the ravages of time were kill or cure.

Blue Notes Records
Some pieces from the record company.
Blue Lagoon, Iceland
Henrik Birkvig, Helle Rindom and I took, as did many others, a detour to the blue lagoon at Keflavik ... we were on our way to ATypI konference in Boston in 1999.
Blue car
The blue car is absolute my car, my model that is.
'Den Blå Bil' is also a comic strip studio that worked from the 1980's until 2003. Which I didn't any connection with, except a share interest in comics I felt like mentioning them.

The Blue Hotel
I've mentioned this somewhere else: The Blue Hotel is a music theatre created by Michael Vesterskov and Marianne Mortensen.
It played at The Jomfru Ane Theatre in Aalborg in may 2009.
More about the piece (in danish, sorry)
Blue zone card (Copenhagen, Århus and Aalborg in Denmark)
The blue zone card is the cheapest zone card in Copenhagen: 2 zones, 10 stamps 130 ddk.
In Århus the cheapest is yellow, and the price is as follows lower: 115 ddk for 10 stamps. On the other hand the buses are (light)blue.
In Aalborg the cheapest card is orange: 116 ddk. They have a blue card allright, but it covers 4 zones and costs 232 ddk. You have to go pretty far outside Aalborg to need 4 zones.

The danish zone cards are, after years delay, finally being replaced by the Rejsekort – about 8 years later than the similar ov-chipkaart was introduced in The Netherland, and 10 years after oyster came to London.
Basically the Rejsekort works, but we are not best friends. The delay makes it seem as ancient technology right from the start. And in some ways it is less convenient than its predecessor.
At least the Rejsekort is blue.
Type Graphics
Not really blue, apart from the cover. But it’s an opportunity to tell that I was represented with some pages in the book Type Graphics by Margaret E. Richardson, published in 2000.
