Inspired by nature and local building traditions, at first glance the Town Hall in Eysturkommuna appears subtle. Nevertheless, the impact of the house is anything but minimal. Bridges that not only serve to connect destinations but become places in their own right, places where people meet and settle, have their own important space in history. Florence, Prague and Venice all have inhabited bridges that define the cities. In the darkness of the Faroese winter, a truly special building bridges not only the river in the village of Norðragøta but unites two municipalities.
