HOAS HIMA, Helsinki
We were involved in a HOAS pilot project to address the housing shortage of students by converting an empty office building into mini-apartments.
The lofty mini-apartments are realised by taking advantage of the higher than normal floor height of the office building. The mini-apartments offer students more privacy than traditional cellular apartments. The rich, varied and high quality common areas of the site offer corresponding opportunities for communal study and leisure. ONE Architects (part of the AINS Group) was responsible for the main and architectural design of the project: https://www.onearchitects.fi/ Kuvat: Kuvatoimisto Kuvio Oy
