Plan to redefine and unclutter the existing block on the Aalto University campus area by means of refurbishment, renewal, addition and demolition. Existing grove is preserved to protect wildlife. New outdoor event space is created in the middle of the block to enable new functions and new type of use. New buildings adapt to the existing campus both by scale and material.
