该建筑工地位于芬兰赫尔辛基最东郊的沃萨里(Vuosaari)。该遗址的特点是新的人工运河和它的圆形池，这创造了结束和新的焦点，该地区的建筑组成。建筑工地位于建筑环境的边缘，从另一边看，它面临着几乎未触及的原始景观，被黑暗的冷杉森林所主导。

The building site is located in Vuosaari, the most eastern suburb of Helsinki in Finland. The site is characterized by the new artificial canal and its circular pool, which creates the ending and the new focus for the architectural composition of the area. The building site is located on the edge of the built environment, from the other side it faces the almost untouched virgin landscape dominated by dark fir forest.

该项目包括中等规模的出租住房单元，沿着运河和森林享受着漫长的前景。在建筑部分，为了营造明亮的氛围，丰富住宅类型，建筑采用了梯级结构。户外阳台在整体上起着重要的作用。其中一些单位现正占用两个露台，以观察不同的方向和照明情况。在北立面上，最具特色的是由悬臂式阳台和入口区域组成的国际象棋式构图。

The program consists of modest sized rental housing units enjoying long vistas along the canal and towards the forest. In section the building is terraced in order to create light atmosphere and to enrich the housing typology. The outdoor balconies are playing an important role in the whole. Some of the flats are occupying two balconies looking into different directions and lighting conditions. On the Northern façade the most characterizing feature is the chess-like composition by cantilevered balconies and the entrance areas.

通过将四个不同的阳台组合成一个巨大的单元，我们创造了视觉技巧，以掩盖规模。这些元素中的每一个都被赋予了充满活力的颜色，为每个元素赋予了不同的特性。盒子里的颜色从强烈的红色和紫色到更分散的绿色。入口区域的檐篷模仿阳台的元素，完成国际象棋般的构图。其余的外墙都被白色的抹灰和相当坚硬的窗户开着，处理得很平静。内部的高度通过使用不同的白色和波纹铝板使光线最大化。

The visual trick in order to obscure the scale has been created by composing four different balconies into one huge unit. Each of these elements has been treated with vibrant colours giving different identity for each of them. Inside the boxes the colours range from strong reds and purples into more diffused greens. The entrance areas with their canopies mimic the balcony elements completing the chess-like composition. Rest of the façade has been treated calmly by white plastering and quite rigid window openings. The inner elevation maximizes the light by using different whites and corrugated aluminium panels.
