Design and New Construction
Vesturvin
Vesturvin is a new residential development with a charming urban feel, now under construction in Reykjavík. The development will bring new life to an old historic industrial area that’s been untapped for years. The location is strategically important as a connection between the city centre, Vesturbær and the Grandi district.
Pedestrian-friendly, community lifestyle is encouraged with good pedestrian connections to the surrounding neighbourhoods, landscaped parks and a public square, welcoming visitors from the neighbouring communities. Emphasis is placed on creating a vibrant urban community by offering a variety of apartments, in size and design, prioritizing quality outdoor spaces and including commercial services and a restaurant on the street level.
The apartments are filled with natural light with floor-to-ceiling windows and enjoy unobstructed sea views and/or beautiful garden and city views. The flow of space and quality of materials was given a high priority. This clever reimagination of space and community comes from the minds of a clever international team of architects, landscape architects and interior designers, from Iceland, the Netherlands and Italy.
