Client: Eide Fjordbruk AS
Project: Salmon Eye
Time to Complete: 3,5 years
Key Aspects:
In December 2018, Creative Technology was assigned by Eide Fjordbruk in Eikelandsosen to develop a unique concept for a visitor center connected to the sea farm facility at Hågardsneset, outside Rosendal in Kvinnherad. Creative Technology invited the design studio Kvorning Design Aps in Copenhagen as partners and could in March 2019, present a visual concept and a extensive narrative concept report for the facility as a visitor experience.
The visual concept was named "Salmon Eye"; A floating installation, shaped like a salmon's eye, which houses a display and information center on the inside, but can also function for various events and meetings. On Friday 2 September 2022, in glorious weather the Salmon Eye was unveiled in spectacular fashion exactly as the design report envisioned it in 2019.
A proud Sondre Eide could finally show the authorities, guests and partners what they have worked intensely to realize over the past 3 years. For those of us who have had the pleasure of being part of the journey, we salute Eide Fjordbruk and their willingness to create something new and different and, not least, their courage and ability to pull it through.
