In the heart of the old town of Hafnarfjörður this cluster of small apartment buildings will surround a central garden. The complex will replace the sites former inhabitant, a three storey concrete that used to house a timber factory called Dvergur. Shops and services will be located on the ground floor along the main street while all apartments will have a private entrance from the central garden. Whilst clearly grounded in the 21st century the new buildings will evoke the old metal cladded timber houses of the surrounding neighbourhoods.
