TOAS Hippos, Tampere
On the site of a former government office building, an open, vibrant and urban student quarter has been built in Tampere's Kaleva district, offering a variety of housing, services and community life.

Built by the Tampere Student Housing Foundation (TOAS), the Hippos quarter, with around 600 student apartments, has been designed and built around the themes of ecological construction, wood use and versatile spaces. The block is also one of the first alliance building projects in Finland. Already in the project planning phase, we took into account the carbon footprint of the block during its life cycle.
