\nat L\u00e6kjargata in Hafnarfj\u00f6r\u00f0ur. The proposal was prepared for GG Verk. Extensive
\nChanges are coming to the field, changes that have as their guiding principle that
\nbeautifully link a new development with the older one. The current house has
\nhas stood on the site since 1965.<\/p>\n
At the meeting of the Planning and Building Committee on 11 July, a motion was laid
\nA decision was reached in the competition for the planning and development of 2 L\u00e6kjargata.
\n(The Dwarf Lodge), but the competition received various proposals which nevertheless included a model.
\nfrom four parties. The council approved the recommendation of a special assessment committee and laid
\nto enter into a contract with the bidder GG verk ehf on the condition that
\nthat a row of terraced houses (four houses) behind G\u00fatt\u00f3 be removed from their planning application. L\u00e6kjargata
\n2 is in a desirable area for residential development but has for years been
\nunderutilised and the house is a poor adornment to the town's appearance. From it, there is a view over
\nThe stream, the churchyard and part of the town centre. In the shaping of the houses that were built
\nare sought to be brought into line with the adjoining houses on L\u00e6kjargata and
\nBrekkugata in terms of form, choice of materials and proportions, so that they work
\nas a natural extension of the existing built-up area. In general, it is not expected
\nfor construction higher than two storeys and a loft.<\/p>\n
