Wettbewerbsaufgabe
Der Hverfjall im Norden Islands ist ein so genannter Tuffsteinringvulkan oder Tephrakegelvulkan. Östlich des vulkanischen Mývatn-Sees gelegen, ist der Explosionskrater des Hverfjall 1 km breit und etwa 140 Meter tief. Er ist ein beliebtes Wanderziel, wo Besucher viele Teile des Kraters über öffentliche Wanderwege, die bis zu 200 Meter hoch sind, leicht erreichen können.
Der Hverfjall, der vermutlich bei einem Vulkanausbruch entstanden ist, ist fast perfekt symmetrisch, mit einer leichten Abweichung an der Stelle eines Erdrutsches, der vor einigen Jahren stattgefunden hat. Seine dunklen, fesselnden Farben machen ihn zu einer beliebten Touristenattraktion und einem beliebten Fotomotiv. Das Gelände steht unter Naturschutz, d. h. Besucher dürfen nur die beiden genehmigten Wanderwege zum Krater benutzen, alle anderen Bereiche sind gesperrt.
Für den Wettbewerb Iceland Volcano Coffee Shop haben sich die Organisatoren des Architekturwettbewerbs Bee Breeders im Rahmen einer Reihe von Wettbewerben in Island mit Landeigendur Voga ehf (Landeigentümer von Vogar-Ackerland) zusammengetan. Bei diesem Wettbewerb sind Architekten und Architekturinteressierte aufgerufen, Entwürfe für ein Café am Fuße des Vulkans Hverfjall einzureichen. Das neue Café soll auch Einrichtungen für ein neues Besucherzentrum und einen kleinen Ausstellungsraum enthalten, in dem die Besucher Informationen über die Geschichte des Vulkans erhalten.
Die siegreichen Entwürfe werden für den Bau vorgeschlagen und sollten daher ein Gleichgewicht zwischen praktischen Ideen und kreativem Design schaffen, das nachhaltig und einzigartig ist und sich in die Landschaft einfügt.
Competition assignment
Hverfjall in northern Iceland is what’s known as a “tuff ring” volcano or a tephra cone volcano. Located east of the volcanic Lake Mývatn, Hverfjall’s volcanic explosion crater is 1 km wide and approximately 140 meters deep. It is a popular hiking destination where visitors can easily access many parts of the crater via public hiking trails which can reach up to 200 meters in height.
Believed to have been created during a volcano eruption, Hverfjall is almost perfectly symmetrical, with a slight variation at the site of a landslide which took place several years ago. Its dark, captivating colours make it a popular tourist attraction and photography spot, and the site is protected, meaning visitors can only use the two approved hiking trails to access the crater, with all other areas restricted.
For the Iceland Volcano Coffee Shop competition, Bee Breeders architecture competition organisers have partnered with Landeigendur Voga ehf (Landowners of Vogar farmland) as part of a series of competitions based in Iceland. For this competition, architects and architecture enthusiasts are called to submit designs for a coffee shop that would be located at the base of the Hverfjall volcano. The new coffee shop would need to include facilities for a new visitor centre and a small exhibition room that would give visitors information about the volcano’s history.
Winning designs will be put forward for construction, so they should strike a balance of practical ideas and creative design that is sustainable, unique, and in keeping with the landscape.
