Tomas Saemundsson Micromuseum
Rangarvallasysla, Iceland
The museum proposal is composed of two parts: A visitors centre, with a small museum function and a lecture space; and a small research centre, with working facilities and accommodation for one person.
By placing the centre in Rangarvallasysla, according to the wishes of our clients, we felt that it was important to create a connection to the environment, where Tomas Sæmundsson spent most of his life. Our attention was drawn towards two places in Rangarvallasysla which were important in his life; Kufholl, where he was born and Breidabolsstadur, where he spent the last years of his life.
