This competition called for a landmark architectural response to create an iconic form on the shore of the river in Helsinki, extending the leisure space of the riverside and creating an architectural and cultural attraction.
A project necessitating a strong architectural presence, our solution was an unbalanced shape that takes inspiration from ships and big containers found near waterways. This creates a strong impact from a distance but intricate details and permeable textures to be discovered from close proximity. A continuous walkway from the ground floor stretches all the way through the exhibition space – filled with filtrated natural light and innovative gallery lighting – leading all the way to an urban park on the roof level.
