Конкурс проводится с целью поиска идей для строительства концептуального отеля в Исландии, из любой комнаты которого гости смогут наблюдать северное сияние. Предполагается, что комплекс будет состоять из отдельностоящих мини-домиков, что позволит открыть всем постояльцам вид на небо. Лучшие проекты будут рассмотрены для потенциальной реализации.

For the Iceland Northern Lights Rooms architecture competition, participants are tasked with creating the concept for a guest house from which to view this breathtaking spectacle. The guest house would need to be able to permanently accommodate its hosts, as well as providing welcoming temporary accommodation for guests.
The building complex would need to feature a series of separate, detached guest bedrooms, scattered around the site. The key attraction of the each room would be its unobstructed view of the sky, allowing guest to gaze at the Northern Lights from the comfort of their own beds.
All winning entries will be put forward for consideration for construction, which is planned to take place in 2019.
