With a series of suites overlooking the magnificent building Fjordenhus and located in one of the most enchanting places in Denmark, Kirk Suites are part of the visionary new harbour project that’s currently under development in Vejle. Architecture, art and a close connection to water are all important aspects of this development. As part of the landscape at the harbour, Kirk Suites have felt an obligation to contribute to the mission of bringing the harbour closer to the city while also creating a new neighbourhood.
Vejle Harbour isn’t just a breathtaking place with fantastic views of the bay – the current renewal of the area and the focus on architecture and art truly combine into a scenic landscape.
Design studio Lulu Mosquito created the interior concept for the new apartment hotel in Miami art deco style, which is known for its playful take on traditional art deco. Artistic wallpaper designs inspired by art deco’s colourful surfaces and graphic motifs set the scene while mirrors enhance the sense of space and reflect the light from the waterfront. In addition, round shapes and curved furniture offer hotel guests a playfully soft and comfortable experience.
Combining the bold, light Miami art deco style and its minimalist Nordic counterpart creates a warm, welcoming, positive and relaxing ambience aiming at making guests feel happy and at home. The creative approach is also meant as a tribute to Scandinavian design, lingering between light and ultra-pop colours and sweet and characterful silhouettes.
In this sense, pampering means a good night’s sleep, a high level of quality and a touch of luxury. While Kirk Suites obviously welcome all guests, the spaces have been developed with extra care and mind for guests being away from home for a while. Down to the smallest detail, focus has been put on making daily life or the weekend get-away easy and smooth.
Close to the lapping waves at Vejle harbour, but not far from the city’s life, guests therefore find the perfect spot to settle down for a little while or a longer period and with fulfilment of all needs within a stone’s throw. The Kirk Suites concept includes exclusive studio apartments, family suites and, of course, a penthouse.
While the crafted rugs excel in bringing just the perfect Miami colours to the floor, they also come with 100% pattern freedom. The design studio has fully embraced this unique opportunity when creating the stripy pattern that adds an extra vibrant touch to the entire interior setting.
In addition, the generously sized rugs bring noise reduction, underfoot warmth, homely cosiness and a very comfortable softness when it comes to the look and feel of the entire space.
Every rug is fitted with an overlock yarn in a contrasting colour, but with a clear link to other interior pieces such as sofas or curtains. This edging choice clearly materialises in a powerful and eye-catching detail with a huge overall impact.
