Louis Vuitton, Helsinki
Finland’s first Louis Vuitton Concept Store was carried out in strict accordance with the luxury brand’s concept.
There was need for many inventive solutions for the building’s technical installation to adhere to Louis Vuitton’s brand book. ONE Architects (part of AINS Group) collaborated with The Finnish Heritage Agency, as the facades of the building, located on the corner of Pohjoisesplanadi and Mikonkatu, are protected in the detailed city plan. ONE played an important role in liaising between the Finnish city planning offices, the client’s project management team, the property owner, the local design team, and the contractor and subcontractors. ONE Architects (Part of AINS Group) were responsible for the main and architectural design of the project: https://www.onearchitects.fi/
