This project takes place in Seyðisfjörður, a small town located in a deep fjord in eastern Iceland that due to its geographical location of lacks sunlight a great part of the year. 

The project focuses on human connection to nature and is based on the importance of light in human existence and how reflection in its broad concept can be used as a tool in that context.

The project consists of mirror structures that are placed on the mountains, where they capture the sunlight and redirect it where it is received by a reflection field, including a ritual lightroom. The program includes a two-layer duality that is interwoven into the overall concept that seeks to align nature and society and form a hybrid landscape.
