In the icy landscape of Greenland

Dorte Mandrup's Kangiata Illorsua Visitor Centre is a shelter, meeting place and viewpoint in the Arctic landscape between the Unesco-protected Kangia Icefjord and the small town of Ilulissat on Greenland's west coast.

Combining architecture, art and science, the building conveys the significance of the unique landscape and offers a new perspective on Greenlandic culture, nature and climate change. With its unusual geometric shape, the architecture responds to the landscape and the extreme Arctic conditions.
