Gardenian uusi elämä – rakennuksen uudelleenkäyttö

Aiheutamme valtavan hiilipiikin purkamalla ja rakentamalla uutta kaupunkien muuttuessa. Arkkitehtiopiskelijat ideoivat Helsingin Gardenian uudelleenkäyttöä. Tutustu siihen, miten Gardenia toimisi vertikaalisessa maanviljelyssä, moskeijana tai kouluna.

The most sustainable building is the one you don’t build. Choose adaptive reuse instead.

As cities develop and societies change, there are buildings who find themselves in the wrong locations with the wrong functions. Instead of causing a huge carbon spike by demolition and new construction, a new life should be given to them.

Last spring master students of architecture developed 15 fantastic ideas for the future use of Gardenia Helsinki in Viikki. The Gardenia was built in 2001 but fell empty already in 2015 as the original business idea of a nature center proved unfeasible. The City of Helsinki is currently trying to find a new use and a new owner for the building. The City has also pledged to become carbon neutral by 2035. In order to reach that, the life span of existing buildings needs to be a lot longer than a decade.

Come and see how the Gardenia would work as a vertical farm, a mosque or a school!

Adaptive Reuse of Buildings is a Master Studio course organized by Building Technology in the Department of Architecture. This project was done in collaboration with The City of Helsinki.

Ympäristöt eläviksi

Aggressiivinen kaupungistuminen rasittaa ekosysteemiamme. Kasvava rakentaminen johtaa valtavaan energiaintensiivisten rakennusmateriaalien kysyntään, ja rakentamisen osuus muodostaa jo 39 prosenttia maailman hiilidioksidipäästöistä.
