EAST FACADE
CITYPLAN
SCALE 1:3000
CITYSCAPE CONCEPT
The building site of the new Guggenheim museum of Helsinki is situated on the shore
of the city’s south harbour. The plot, which we interpret as an urban sea promenade
with intensive citizen activity would turn into a new pole of dynamic attraction of the
city. The promenade acts as the limit of the city and acquires necessary attributes of the
landscape as an isolated and compact volume, that is 60m x 60m width x 32m height.
The orientation of the building towards the sea in relation to the urban fabric shows its
autonomous state confirming the fact that it doesn’t belong to the city but to the landscape.
VIEW TO THE ENTRANCE
“We can access the new building via a ramp connected to the promenade and the park. The park and the pond outside is surrounded by trees and have been created as an exterior hall which leads the architectural promenade into
the mysterious interior”

ARCHITECTURAL CONCEPT
SOUTH EAST VIEW
The new Guggenheim Museum in Helsinki is presented as an isolated piece of the Finnish landscape converted into architecture.
A building that draws its form from the abstraction of the elements that define the landscape, the
forests, the lakes and the high blue sky that covers everything.
The perimeter is constructed of towers evoking the grid of trees of Finnish forests encloses in its
interior an empty space as if it was a lake bathed in daylight. This empty space is related to the exterior by two large openings, one at the entrance of the building and another one facing the sea.
The form and the materialization of the building constructed of a white, smooth and polished
concrete reflects the changing light and converts the construction into a dense, profound and
mysterious building that approaches the landscape as if it was part of it.

ECOLOGY AND SUSTAINABILITY
The building promotes participation of
pluralistic society, in which all citizens
take responsibility for environment. It
minimize the use of energy and emissions, intensified energy efficiency and
extensive utilization of renewable energy sources from the natural areas.
WHITE PHOTOCATALITIC CONCRETE
The material was selected after considering their life cycle assessment: Concrete is made recycling end-of-life local
material and reuse it as aggregate. The
photocatalysts (TiO 2), using solar energy,
change organic and inorganic pollutants in CO 2, H 2O and other harmless substances.
NATURAL ELEMENTS
1-2 A closed and introverted volume
combined with the outside vegetation
provides the building with an apropiate
thermal control.
3-4 Rainwater collected in a tank under
the building, which it’s reused to supply
toilets and to water the trees.
5 Exterior sun shading to minimize
thermal gain. According to exposition’s
needs, brise soleil rotate. Displacement
ventilation system for optimal stratification and high air quality with minimal
energy use.
