Fjordenhus inauguration

Kirk Kapital’s new domicile in Vejle will be inaugurated on 9 June. Fjordenhus will be the name of the building that Studio Olafur Eliasson designed.

In June Vejle gets another piece of art. This happens when Kirk Kapital opens the doors to the new domicile, Fjordenhus. It is the world-renowned artist Olafur Eliasson and the architects of his studio who have designed the building, which is the first building that Studio Olafur Eliasson builds.

Fjordenhus is a contraction of “Fjordens hus”, and refers to the location of the building in the water next to Havneøen in Vejle Fjord. It is the artist himself who has named the work of art.

“We are looking forward to presenting Fjordenhus, which we hope will help make Vejle’s harbour environment even more exciting” – Kim Gulstad, CEO of Kirk Kapital.

The entire ground floor will be open to the public, where citizens from home and abroad will be able to enjoy a number of artworks created by Olafur Eliasson.

“In my work with Havneøen and the domicile of Kirk Kapital A/S in Vejle, I have tried to find a simple organic expression” – Olafur Eliasson.

Kirk Kapital invites everyone to a festive inauguration on June 9th 2018, where there will be entertainment for both children and adults.
