Iceland Residency


Korpúlfsstaðir residency is situated in what used to be Iceland’s largest dairy farm, on the outskirts of Reykjavík with beautiful view of mt. Esja.

Korpúlfsstaðir is on the eastern outskirt of Reykjavík, 10 km away from the city center. The house, which was built in the years between 1925-30, was formerly one of the biggest dairy farms in Iceland. Today Korpúlfsstaðir houses various activities such as 40 SÍM artist studios, a textile workshop, a ceramic workshop, an artist run gallery and a golf club with a golf course outside. Korpúlfsstaðir residency is applicable for Icelandic and foreign artists for 1 – 3 months.

The SÍM guest apartment in Korpúlfsstaðir consists of a living room (TV/ sofa), a fully equipped kitchen and a bathroom with a shower. The residency hosts 3 artists at any given time. One big studio is shared by the 3 artists/designers staying each time. Each artist has his/her own private bedroom with two beds.
