Central Pasila Tower Area design competition excellent step for urban
development
The joint proposal of SATO, Skanska and ALA Architects has been shortlisted for
the second phase in the Helsinki High-Rise architectural competition. With an
emphasis on quality, the purpose of the competition is to find a plan and an
executor for the Tower Area of Central Pasila, Helsinki. SATO regards the
development of Central Pasila as an important response to Helsinki's
urbanisation challenges through diverse urban development and variety in housing
solutions.
- With this competition, the City of Helsinki has provided us with an excellent
opportunity to come up with ideas for a vibrant urban environment in one of the
city's most central undeveloped areas, says Vice President Antti Aarnio from
SATO. - We've done plenty of zoning development work with cities before, and of
course it's great to be involved in the design of an entirely new residential
area with highly competent partners. Our preparation for the second phase of the
competition will include the careful further consideration of issues such as
construction costs and their impact on the most essential aspect from our
customers' perspective - the rent level of the homes.
A total of ten proposals took part in the first phase of the Helsinki High-Rise
architectural competition launched at the beginning of 2017 by the Finnish State
and the City of Helsinki. The aim was to formulate a high-quality plan for the
entire Tower Area of Central Pasila that can serve as a basis for zoning. In the
second phase, the four shortlisted competitors will prepare a more detailed plan
for at least 40,000 - 65,000 floor square metres located in the western part of
the Tower Area.
