"The first inhabitants of Iceland built their homes from the material that was closest at hand: the earth itself. In the early 20th century, more than half the Icelandic population were still living in turf houses, and a few dozen such buildings remain standing today. (...) Architect Hjörleifur Stefánsson has been researching the history and forms of Icelandic turf houses for many years. (...) In From Earth – Icelandic Turf Houses, originally published in Icelandic as Af jörðu – íslensk torfhús, he presents the results of decades of study of Iceland’s turf building tradition."
