In the third part of our DesignMarch special we leave 101 Reykjavík for a brief stop at Iceland’s leading furniture retailer Epal, where we have a chat with director Kjartan Páll Eyjólfsson about this unique store and it’s role as a patron of Icelandic design. After that we go on a roadtrip to the suburbs of Reykjavík with architects Kristján Eggertsson and Krisján Örn Kjartansson, partners of KRADS Architects. Tune in to hear Kristján Eggertsson’s Volvo spin and follow us to Garðabær, Úlfarsárdalur and Kópavogur where we have a look at some of KRAD’s project and get some valuable insights to the suburban sprawl of Iceland’s capital area and the urban planning challenges that Reykjavík is facing.
