Iceland - Stunning architecture in epic nature | Sustainable interior design

Iceland’s epic nature demands a sustainable architecture. In the islands ever-changing weather, it’s not easy to design a house flooded with light. The German Peter Weiss has done it. The whole house is inspired by the construction of traditional farmhouses and fits perfectly to its surrounding. But see for yourself.

This is how ALL people should treat countries they move to. Wonderful respect for the country, culture, and heritage. This house adds to the space they've taken, it doesn't detract, and it fits with the ecologically mindful ethics of Icelandic culture. They clearly value and respect Iceland's culture and her people and wish to integrate seamlessly instead of being self centred. I can't imagine how some hideous American McMansion, mod cement blockitecture, or some Tuscan clay roofed mansion would ever fit into such a landscape.

I’m wondering how far away the nearest town is.

[@dweuromaxx]

The next town is Ísafjörðurm, about 20 Minutes by car - depending on weather conditions ❄🌨
