Reykjavik has an abundance of renewable energy resource which can act as the foundation for the future development in the city. Not only does this create huge economic advantages, it also creates a global draw to the city which can be used to re-define its identity.

The aim of the masterplan is re re-create, re-brand and re-design Reykjavik through a series of key issues, which if holistically designed can improve the city’s overall identity. Focusing on the 101 zone allows the masterplan to address key social, political and economic issues enabling the proposal to have the biggest impact to the city, the country and the world.

The beauty of Iceland’s nature can be drawn back into Reykjavik. If renewable energy can be explored to its maximum potential and the city can address the issues within the 101 then it can truly re-create it’s identity and become the true Northern capital city in the world. Reykjavik can become the city of light.
