Status Artis [ interiors ]

A Landmark Reimagined

Hietalahdenranta 13, a former office building in the heart of Helsinki, was transformed into refined, contemporary apartments. Originally completed in 1957 as the headquarters of Yhtyneet Kuvalehdet, the building was designed by Finnish functionalis architects Märta Blomstedt and Matti Lampén. Its thoughtful conversion honored the spirit of the original design while adapting it to modern residential needs.

The building’s location—where the sea opens out and the Bulevardi begins—offered a rich historical and architectural setting. The surrounding streetscape, marked by layers of Art Nouveau and Modernist architecture, framed the project in a meaningful cultural context. Many of the building’s original features were carefully preserved, including the elegant staircase railings and the distinctive floor markings of the old lifts, lending character and continuity to the renewed interiors.

The apartments are furnished to a high standard, with residents able to choose from three distinct interior design concepts—or even combine elements from each. Every design features high-quality materials throughout. What also sets Status Artis apart is its outstanding level of service. Residents enjoy their own private gym, an elegant meeting room, and a luxurious spa, thoughtfully designed with a deep respect for Finnish sauna traditions.
