Master's students in architecture at the Iceland University of the Arts welcome you to an exciting exhibition at the Epal gallery Laugarvegi 7! 🎉

From September 18 to 28, a selection of works by architect Einar Sveinsson (1906 -1973) will be on display. The exhibition will display models and drawings prepared in the first weeks of the fall semester 2025 in the course “Collective Research - Typology”, where the subject is form of residence and house types. The instructors of the course are Garðar Snæbjörnsson and Andri Gunnar Lyngberg Andrésson.

Einar Sveinsson was a key figure in the development of Reykjavík's urban landscape and worked as a city architect from 1934 until the end of his life. His buildings are an integral part of the city's appearance, but his contribution has not always received the recognition it deserves. Now it's time to shed light on the significant heritage he leaves behind!

Come and see some of Reykjavík's best-known landmarks and the history of the city's architecture! 🏛️

We look forward to welcoming you to this celebration of Icelandic architecture.
