Project: Private residence, xx m2, Reykjavík, Iceland

Status: Completed in 2015

This project entails the extension and complete refurbishment and reorganisation of an early 20th century house in downtown Reykjavik, to create a contemporary, single-family home.

Apart from renovating and reconfiguring the original structure, a small in situ cast concrete addition activates all three levels of the house. In colourful dialogue with the client, careful attention was given to the relationship between old and new throughout the process.
