Text description provided by the architects. A complex of two apartment houses for social housing in the suburban area of Malmi in Helsinki, Finland. An innovative and sustainable approach was required by the client, the Helsinki Housing Production Bureau to ensure the design quality on the city owned lot. Affordable purchase and maintenance costs, sustainable rental homes with the combination of the limitations of the site were the key fundamentals of the project. Schematic design began in 2007 and construction was completed in September 2010.
