The Land of Giants



The ‘Land of Giants’ project was originally submitted for the ‘Icelandic High-Voltage Electrical Pylon International Design Competition’, where it received an honourable mention. The competition was to find a new typology for Iceland's high voltage power lines and pylons.




Choi+Shine has transformed mundane electrical pylons into statues on the Icelandic landscape by making only small alterations to existing pylon design. Making only minor alterations to well-established steel-framed tower design, the architects have created a series of powerful and variable towers.
