Icelandic campsite chooses Jörnträhus

A Strycksele semi-detached house in a large block with a building area of 230 square metres has just been delivered to Iceland. The buyer is Ingibjörg Sigurðardóttir who, together with her colleague Audur Fridgerdur Halldórsdótti, runs a camping site and associated café business.

Ingibjörg's choice of a Jörnträhus is mostly due to the fact that she already bought a timber Jörnträhus in 2001 and has always been extremely satisfied with it. The new semi-detached house will be used as a permanent residence.

The advantage of block houses is the fast assembly time, which appeals to the buyers as the seasons can be moody in the open landscape on which the house is placed. There has been close cooperation between Jörnträhus designers, the buyer's contractor and quality manager, to ensure not least wind loads and anchorages on this standard house.

The kit is being transported by container by sea, which also poses additional requirements than normal, but everything has been solved very easily and the kit is on its way to Iceland.

Already now, Jörnträhus has received further interesting requests for house building kits for the nearby area, which feels very positive.
