A pleasant surprise to see the two prefabricated projects presented on your site. The top project is indeed prefabricated – at a shipbuilders in nearby Stykkishólmur
Constructed during winter (slow season for shipbuilding) in two parts and transported to the building site.

I do not think the newer house at the top is prefab- two storey spaces and such large volumes are tough. It is, however, very lovely and worthy of your wonderful site.
