Ranger cabins in Vatnajökull National Park both serve as the ranger’s workplace and home, during the period of duty. The cabins are designed in three different sizes as they have the capacity to be inhabited by 1 – 4 employees.  Each cabin has its own workshop.  In the Vatnajökull National Park (VNP) there will be a total of 10 cabins.  The cabins will be placed in the diverse landscape of VNP.  The main objectives of the design was to get simple and robust buildings, that would endure the harsh and ever changing weather conditions.
