About the project

Rising sea levels caused by climate change will affect all life on earth and change the landscape we know. Álftanes is the flatest part of the capital area in Iceland and have already experienced problems related to the rising sea. In Iceland the method of stacking big stones has been used for sea defenses. My project is to design a waterscape that does not separate you from the sea, but on the contrary breasts you closer to it.
