ABOUT THE RESIDENCY

ORBI residency opens up the association’s farmhouse and facilities as a residency for architects, artists, graphic designers, agronomists, farmers and other related professions. With this first edition we wish to support projects that examine the ways in which we build, cultivate, work and live in the constantly changing rural areas of Denmark.

FACILITETER

ORBI is located on a former agricultural property in Vrå in the southern Jutland. Since 2020, the property has been used to host a number of schools and workshops. The property consists of a farmhouse (former residence) and two large barns. Over the past few years, one of the barns has been equipped with facilities supporting social gatherings and practical projects. The other barn is used for storage. The barns are unheated.

Residents will be sleeping in one of the farm’s four guestrooms of varying size. Groups applying for the residents must indicate how many rooms, they are applying for. Residents bring their own sleeping equipment. Our facilities offer a kitchen, a dining room and one shared bathroom with a shower. We are located close to a river and forest as well.
