SHOPS, RESTAURANT, FORUM
On the ground floor guests will find small shops and a restaurant with glass walls facing the busy street life connecting the two main downtown shopping areas on Laugavegur and Skolavordustigur. The site is ideal for such activity with a broad pavement and trees to the south where you will have outdoor refreshments on sunny days. On the lower ground floor you will find workshops, meeting rooms and a small hall, together contributing to a forum for innovation.
In addition to hotel apartments and other commercial activities the house is intended to be a meeting point for scholars, artists and researchers to share with the public programs focused on interdisciplinary work, creative output and innovation. To this end there will be various events on the calendar including seminars, conferences, presentations, concerts and exhibitions. By this it is hoped that this new house with its undeniably important cultural roots and story will pay due hommage to those important artists that once lived there and will in turn serve as a forum for entrepreneurial innovation, for discussions of good ideas and an aid to make them come true.
Flats and commercial space is available for prospective buyers and investors who can now be part of the project before the final stage of design and construction. Information at vego@vegamotahus.is.
