PH OTO E S SAY
ANDRÉS NIETO PORRAS
The Celtic monks and Norse
built traditional homes representative of that period. Made with
thick walls of stone and earth,
these dwellings helped with
temperature moderation.
The modern façade of Hallgrímskirkja church in Reykjavik continues the tradition of
tying in the natural world with
architecture. It takes its form
from the shapes created by lava
cooling, something that is the
very basis for Iceland itself.
