Sandgerði is a particularly charming community with a strong connection to the fishing industry and a location near Iceland's international airport. The new site that connects the old town to a new population area is developed with foresight in mind. The design is specially designed to facilitate the social integration of international families who have just moved to the country.
Among the main features of a project is the noticeable rise of the building and, among other things, a common garden, designed according to the needs of diverse family generations. Also, a remote garden that fungifies as a common leisure space, a designer to strengthen the social connections of the townspeople. This new development in Sandgerði is also a way to promote empathy and togetherness in society.
