When in Iceland
Hello ! I am back after a long break in Scotland and Iceland.....svo hefjast skrif innanhússarkitektúrsins Svölu Jónsdóttur eftir ferð hennar um Skotland og Ísland þar sem hún kom við á Siglufirði en um bæinn fer hún fögrum orðum.
Hello ! I am back after a long break in Scotland and Iceland where we had a great time with family and friends. Our first stop was Westman Island, South Iceland and we ended our trip this time in the North of Iceland, Akureyri and Siglufjörður.
In Siglufjörður I have not been too many times but the fjord has its breathtaking view over the mountains and fjord. The history of the town is very interesting but Siglufjörður is Icelands most northerly town or only 40 km away from the arctic circle !
I ended up having lunch in one of the most popular Restaurant Café in the North of the country but the building is an old Salt fish factory. Later it was used for housing the fishermen during high seasons and in 2011 they opened Kaffi Rauðka (Rauðka Café) where Edda Ríkharðsdóttir managed the interior design.
In all their buildings (Kaffi Rauðka, Hannes Boy Café and Bláa húsið), Jón Steinar Ragnarsson set designer managed the look and feel of the spaces were they
wanted to focus on creating a warm and cozy ambience.
I think they had done really well!
Until next time
