Lifestyle Hub Aarhus opens on December 1, 2025.
In this new lifestyle center, you can become part of a dynamic environment and take part in innovation and learning programs tailored for SMEs and entrepreneurs — all in close collaboration with established companies and knowledge institutions.
The hub will be buzzing with creative businesses from the lifestyle sector (fashion, furniture, and design). At the same time, we expect tech companies and other suppliers to become part of the synergy that will naturally emerge.
Reach out to Christian Chapelle if you’d like to learn more.
Lifestyle Hub Aarhus will be located in the Sydhavnskvarteret as part of a mixed-use, vibrant downtown and business district, developed with respect for the existing buildings and structures in the area. The majority of the area's historic buildings will be preserved and transformed for new functions.
This ensures a strong presence for Lifestyle and Design Cluster within the new creative and innovative environment. The building will house an incubator environment for lifestyle companies, exhibition facilities, and also Lifestyle and Design Cluster’s own offices. The purpose of the incubator is to support the development of entrepreneurs in the lifestyle industry through development programs and by strengthening the overall ecosystem.
“We want to strengthen our part of the creative environment in Aarhus by connecting SMEs in the lifestyle industry with knowledge institutions.”

The Lifestyle Hub’s connection to the broader urban plan can briefly be described as a building that stands on its own—yet is very much part of something larger. Its functions are designed with a cross-disciplinary mindset, and urban life is an integral part of the concept.
Sydhavnskvarteret – A Melting Pot of History, Creativity, and New Urban Life
Sydhavnskvarteret is evolving into a vibrant and multifaceted district in the heart of Aarhus—where past and future meet. As you walk through the neighborhood, you’ll encounter its industrial heritage in the form of the Kulkransporet rail track, the old slaughterhouse, the cobbled Jægergårdsgade, and the iconic AAK oil mill, all intertwined with striking new architecture, urban art, and a rich mix of people and businesses.
This emerging urban and commercial district is being developed with deep respect for the existing structures, which are being preserved and transformed for new uses. The result is a dynamic, mixed-use area that combines workspaces, cultural institutions, dining, education, and community—making it a natural extension of Aarhus' inner city.
Lifestyle Hub Aarhus – a central hub for lifestyle businesses, innovation, and incubation
Akson – a 26-storey office tower
Guldsmeden Hotels and Moxy – two distinctive hotels
Train – a well-known music venue
The Jutland Art Academy, Aarhus Center for Visual Art, and VIA Design
Sydhavnens Spisehus – a community dining space
The district will also feature:
A vibrant mix of businesses from fashion, design, and lifestyle sectors
Social initiatives and organizations supporting vulnerable groups
Restaurants, cafés, wellness and fitness facilities
A creative cluster focused on art, gaming, and animation
Originally developed in 1905 as a harbor zone along Frederiksbjerg, Sydhavnen was built to serve industrial companies in need of proximity to shipping routes. Today, the area spans approximately 47,000 m² and is being reimagined as a thriving new neighborhood.
The development is led by construction and development firm A. Enggaard, with first tenants expected to move in during 2025. Sydhavnskvarteret is poised to become one of Aarhus’ most dynamic and attractive districts—rooted in history and bursting with new possibilities.
