REYKJAVIK

The Icelandic National Concert & Conference Centre

The The Icelandic National Concert & Conference Centre in Reykjavik will house a centre for music, culture and tourism. The building will be constructed at the city centre harbour where the waterfront wharf and the old harbour wall meet on a striking coastal site, embraced by the sea.
The design of the building, by the architectural firm Henning Larsens Tegnestue A/S, is influenced by the impressive and dramatic Icelandic landscape. The concept of the building is to create a crystalline form with a variety of colours dependent on the surrounding nature, giving the viewer a continuous feeling of sensuous change. The Concert and Conference Centre will create the best conditions for Iceland’s continually expanding musical life and will be the home of The Iceland Symphony Orchestra. Furthermore, it will include a top-rate conference facility closely connected to a 5-star 300 room W-Hotel. The estimated size of the centre is 25.000 m2 and the hotel is of similar size.
