About the project

The water pushes in through the karma, flows everywhere and moves closer to the air The family joins a boat and takes the course for the Sheriff's Hill, Stykkishólmi On the hill rises a new home that lifts them from the water and gives them shelter from the winds What can architecture learn from the boat and how it works with the water? The new home takes care of them, calms them and connects them to the environment Cooperation within the home strengthens their relationships, they learn them from each other and the understanding between generations increases The use of the telecommunication mast on the hill activates the area for the public and allows everyone to climb up and observe the flow of the sea.

The water seeps through the windows, flows everywhere and creeps closer to the ceiling. The family gathers in a boat and sets sail for Sýslumannshólinn, Stykkishólmur. On the hill, a new home rises that lifts them from the water and provides shelter from the winds. What can architecture learn from the boat and how it works with the water? The new home embraces them, calms them and connects them to the environment. Collaboration within the home strengthens their bonds, they learn from each other and understanding between generations deepens. The use of the telecommunications mast on the hill activates the area for the public and allows everyone to climb up and observe the flow of the ocean.
