Reykjavík, more than most other cities, was formed in a close interplay with nature, which in earlier times made this city, and its surrounding nature, a close unity. The book suggests a method to achieve this integration again. Western thinking still sees binary pairs, like e.g. city and nature and house and garden as opposites. The book explains that these pairs, contrary to belief, complement each other. Their union, therefore, actually elevates cities and architecture to a higher level.
