In 2020, Fellow Workspace opened the doors to its communal space overlooking the emerging harbor area of Aarhus. Working nomads and dynamic businesses fill the space, designed to bring creative ideation, collaboration and community into daily working life. We are proud to have curated over 60 art pieces for the project, and collaborated with four artists from our networks to create 10+ customised artworks.

Fellow Workspace

Ruth Crone Foster created a 3D artwork of sober shades of noir, matching both the colour and leading style of the workspace.
In the lobby of the workspace, two abstract works made by the young artistic talent Mads Kristensen. Eccentric strokes break with the bucolic calmness of the room and slip a bit of irreverence into its soothing formalism. A galvanizing welcome.
A sophisticated room blends naturally with artworks characterized by sober yet expressive compositions. As here, with this visually striking piece, made by ROOM and located next to one of the soundproof booths.
Works from the same series are mounted in one of the rooms dedicated to phone conferences. An opportunity to stimulate your mind while on long phone calls.
In the bigger open working space, a salon style art-wall with several pieces provides the space with a deep well of inspiring freshness - a vital resource for long days at the office.
Zooming in, we here see a delicate ceramics piece hanging next to a miniature canvas depicting a dramatic natural landscape. The art wall creates a great look from afar, as well as providing a rich experience.
The work draws parallels to the entropy of a co-working environment, where the individuals in the space make up a coherent whole - albeit with varying shapes of work and frequencies.
The serpent-like shape is an ode to the creative fluxus infused in the room, a visual invitation to look up from the desk, and stimulation of the beholder’s intuition.
Two modern acquarella flower bouquets by artist Amalie Kvistgaard.
Next to a social and open working station, we mounted an original work by artist Phuc Van Dang, made in his signature black and white figurative abstractions. This large work, measuring 150 x 150 cm, was created at one of our earlier events.
Relief art piece by artist Ruth Crone Foster. A rustic piece in several layers of geometric shapes with layers made up of noise-reducing material. Beyond looking good, the piece helps to improve the meeting room’s acoustics.
Moving on through the corridor of the Fellow working space, a neat sign with an energizing quote will uplift the people passing by.
A subtle splash of colours commissioned especially for this project that seamlessly add to the atmosphere of the remaining space.
In a corridor, a work made by artist Ruth Crone Foster. The rouge colours provide a contrast to the raw concrete wall to create a more playful, familiar and contemporary look.

We wanted to create a co-working space that embodies our mantra “Let’s kill the ordinary office!” by decorating the 2000 m2 in a way the alludes to and urban luxury hotel in a european metropolitan, rather than a steril and stereotypical office. We have tried to create a house where one is inspired by the beautiful details while having the peace and quiet to develop ones business, while we handle all the practical. The canvas of premium materials, jazzy lounge music, and a location 50 meters from the ocean creates a feeling of self-indulgence that offers an extra drive to work.

Brief.

Our artful touch came as a playful top-up of Fellow’s well-defined aesthetic identity. In a manifestly Scandinavian heritage, Fellow managed to balance out elegance and vibrance, work and hygge, rawness and sophistication. The coarseness of the building was tempered with a selection of minimalist furniture of softer shapes and vivid colors. Features of rick, oak tree, brass and natural stones reminded of an atelier-like set up. Therefore, our curatorial framework needed to be versatile and stimulate the space towards fulfilling its initial purpose: being a hub capable of inspiring the diverse community of professionals it welcomes, from independent consultants or freelancers, to building start-ups or running booming scale-ups.

Solution.

By decorating the vast office in a way that alludes to an urban luxury metropolitan hotel,  we realized how Fellow too shared our mantra: “Let’s kill the ordinary office”. Our curatorial perspective opened up for the opportunity of letting several artists invest the working area with artworks made of premium materials.  With the intention to accentuate Fellow’s fruitful interplay between shapes, colors and materials, we wanted to fill their space with subtle yet charming wonders, to instill a feeling of self-indulgence that offers an extra-drive to work. 

Add some jazz lounge music, pay attention to the oceanic landscape nearby, and you have the perfect location to facilitate growth hacking and creative business ideation.
