An architectural competition has been launched in the Kukkula area.
Aiming for a high-quality and feasible urban design
The goal of the competition is to develop the area into a future city district, where a spatially interesting environment would offer various forms of housing, health and well-being services, commercial services, and diverse recreational and green spaces. The diverse, high-quality block structure, in terms of urban design, must naturally integrate with green areas and connections. In addition, the design must consider functional parking arrangements and smooth movement within the initial blocks. Architecturally, the plan must be timelessly sustainable and include high-quality solutions related to the functionality, flexibility, and economic feasibility of the buildings.
The main emphasis in evaluating the competition entries will be on the urban design and architectural appearance of the proposals, as well as their integration into the environment and landscape. The competition proposals must also be technically and economically feasible and capable of being implemented in phases.
Four architectural firms invited to the competition
The competition organizers have selected four architectural firms as participants: Arkkitehtitoimisto Arco Oy, Arkkitehtitoimisto Muuan Oy, Arkkitehtipalvelu Oy, and Arkkitehdit MY Oy.
