Development Potential of Greater
Reykjavík Urban Area
RVK21C+ is an urban research project in architec-
tural and urban methodology developed between 1998
and 1999 by URBAN research OFFICE, partially in
collaboration with OCEAN and the Architectural
Association in London.
The project focused on research and development of
dynamic relations that are both influential and reactive
to the organisation and material geometry of a project
that spans scales from the building, through the urban
to the intemational.
Infra-polis
The international
The project seeks to structure the planning of
Reykjavík to integrate the city into the international
network as an infrastructural node. The project pro-
poses that Reykjavík establishes an international free
trade area within the city with a rail connection to the
intemational airport. Reykjavík airport area, adjacent
to the city centre, is proposed as the site for the free
trade area, central rail station and airport terminal.
Infra-city
The local
Reykjavrk is in stark need of densification, after
decades of unchecked urban sprawl, directionless
planning approaches, and ineffectual green-field inser-
tion.
The project proposes an integrated landscape and
high-density urban fabric as a model for further devel-
opment in the city. The proposal attempts a smooth
fusion of program and infrastructure with the local
(city centre) district, the city, raral areas and interna-
tional infrastructure. ■
