Vacation House In Iceland

This vacation is very unique and it’s very comfortable to stay in. Besides the outstanding design, there’s a great view and environment around the vacation house. It’s a wise decision to get this vacation house in Iceland. Let’s take a look how cool the design is.

This modern and stunning vacation home is the work of Norway-based architect Gudmunder Jonsson. The concept behind the design was to provide different panoramic views from each side of the home and features a striking curved wall feature. The entrance with the brown stone texture paint with the overhead lighting above it is brilliant. The curved wall with its complementing curved ceiling manages to break the linear monotony.Towards south the view to the sea and islands, towards north the characteristic triangular mountain, towards east the glacier and towards west the river and canyon.

These modern vacation house design combines three different material for its main structure; concrete construction materials, wood construction material and glass materials resulting this stunning two storey modern house design ideas that was created based on reading and feedback to the landscape it exists on. This residential building concept is a composition and dialogue of views and experiences of the various nature at site.

Those elements are the creator of the project, the transitions between the landscape views giving the entrance from the north and the curved plan giving a vitalized focus towards the seaside in south. When turning back the north view towards the mountain is as well enhanced with the widening view due to the fan-shape of the tilting wooden wall, being a mediator between the northern and southern landscape characteristic. The tilting is an answer and an interpretation of the glacier towards east, they are communicating and the only and huge window in that wall is creating “a painting” of the glacier experienced from the interior. – Gudmundur Jonsson
