Danish architect Peter Sand recently received the 4th prize in the open urban international competition for a new city center in Klaksvik on the Faroe Islands. The new master plan, which is composed of 21,000 new square meters in the city center, highlights the already existing natural qualities with the close contact to the fjord and the beautiful surrounding mountains. More images and architects’ description after the break.
By adjusting the coastline the water becomes the structuring element in the new city area that unite the city and makes Klaksvik more interesting on the Faroe Islands and outside the country’s borders.
