Alaska Design Forum hosts Icelandic architect Wednesday

Palmar Kristmundsson, an architect from Reykjavik, Iceland, will be the featured speaker at The Alaska Design Forum's lecture this Wednesday, Nov. 11. This season's lectures, the LATITUDE series, explore building and design in other high-latitude environments. The lecture begins at 6 p.m. at the Silverbow's Back Room. Admission is $10; $5 for students, military, seniors and starving artists.

PK Arkitekar is an architecture and design studio established in 1986 by Kristmundsson. After studying in both Japan and Denmark, Kristmundsson now works on a wide range of projects throughout northern Europe. The firm has won much acclaim for buildings such as the Icelandic embassy in Berlin.
