Arctic Scene Suites & TreeHouse Hotel
Experiental accommodation units
Architecture — Interior Architecture — Hotels & Resorts
The Arctic TreeHouse Hotel project started with a concept design made in close cooperation with the client. The inspiration for the accommodation concept — set on a steep natural slope — came from Nordic nature and culture as well as the magical world of SantaPark. A vision started to form: we wanted to create an optimal setting for experiencing both nature and arctic mysticism.
Nattours accessible recreational path
Accessible recreational path to bring nature to all
Architecture — Nature & Wellness
The Nattours project began with the goal of making the local natural attractions in Helsinki, Finland more accessible, not only from a practical standpoint, but a humanistic one too. The result was a series of accessible nature trail boardwalks throughout several islands in the city.
Niliaitta
From a shed to a unique overnight experience
Area Planning – Building design – Interior
The Niliaitta prototype takes inspiration from the traditional niliaittas. The lifted up structure has been used to store food safe from the animals, but works perfectly as a platform for amazing views. For the future around 50 units are planned for the Kivijärvi resort area.
