Iceland and a fascinating and delicious experience in the warm embrace of the greenhouse!
Icelandic restaurant-greenhouse is a multifunctional space that can accompany the audience
with the process of agricultural production while serving as an international restaurant .
The main idea of creating restaurant-greenhouse spaces was to open up and make available
the inherent potential of the land for agriculture. This opening to the light and being
sheltered from the heat of the soil by providing the performance of greenhouses and also a
view of the natural attractions of the region, provides the main goals of the competition .

from the beginning of the design process, the necessary space for 6 modules and 1 half

Use of geothermal energy
In this structure, water is sent into the ground at a normal temperature by a pump, and after

to be heated again for circulation in the greenhouse
