Viikki Three
Project description
Vikki's urban concept in Helsinki consists of two main parts: a strategic development depicted in the urban plan and an innovative design for the competition. It aims to integrate the university's historic sites via a network of pedestrian pathways and public spaces inspired by Japanese garden aesthetics. This design strategy emphasizes connectivity between the campus sides, blending natural formations with new developments, thus enriching the student and community experience.
