ICELAND COMMUNITY HOUSE
The site is located in the Mývatn region, one of the most-visited areas in North Iceland, which is home to incredible natural wonders.
The community house would be the region’s main location for trading, sharing, recycling materials and resources in order to exemplify how a circular economy operates.

The site is located in a mountainous area, close to natural beauties
I made a model-clausura from pins and thread, which shows my vision of the landscape of the territory
The natural relief was taken as the basis for the future location of the buildings of the complex
The shape of the building prevents the accumulation of precipitation, and also does not interfere with the strong Icelandic wind
The Exterior
The community house at Myvatn lake is designed with special care to the unique natural environment.
Section Of Greenhouse
The products grown in the greenhouse are sold, and the waste to be processed is brought by the Icelanders to the warehouse of the Community Center and then exported.
Section Of The Main Building
Reuse of water and waste is envisaged, modern technologies are applied to save electricity and heat. The bio-gas used for the fireplace in the main building is obtained from the fermentation of waste.
