Diseño de plan maestro en el distrito de Viikki, Helsinki creando comunidad en viviendas, edificios nuevos y existentes

Abstract

This degree project presents a Master Plan for the Viikki District, Helsinki, which will enhance development and connectivity. The development of the proposal focuses on architectural and urban interventions, with areas of conservation and new construction that respond to the guidelines established in Finland on environmental responsibility in modern construction. For this, exhaustive research was carried out on the way of building in Finland, which led to the comprehensive development of two architectural proposals connected through public space divided into squares and areas of both pedestrian and continuous road circulation. The project also emphasizes the use of efficient and sustainable materials that reduce CO2e production, making it an environmentally responsible project. The proposal is developed under the general concept of biomimesis, so its conceptualization is based on the compression of the energy collection operation of the Baltic Sea and its internal ecosystems, which allowed fluidity in the development of bioclimatic strategies to achieve buildings and urban proposals efficient.
