The ROK Restaurant in Reykjavik — a fine example of how traditional Icelandic turf-roof design meets modern simplicity. The grass-covered roof links the building to older rural forms while the clean vertical cladding and symmetry keep it contemporary.

My #MidweekMuseum recommendation this week is #Laufás folk and heritage #museum in #Iceland, not too far from #Akureyri in the north of the country. This is not your normal turf house, as it was a wealthy manor house and vicarage. There's a church there you can visit too, but the house is the main star, and is TARDIS-like in its size inside with corridors and rooms off everywhere in the grassy landscape.

Sometimes we think the powerElite do not want us to live in equilibrium, specifically so they can turn up their noses at us and #virtueSignal about how they built the perfect #vaccuumSealed #ecoMansion with a #grassRoof and 10 acres of #sunCapturing #land.
Also then they can feel okay about bombing us and treating us like their cattle.
After they #thinTheHerd they can return to #growthMantras etc and they can continue the cycle.
