Respecting the old with a modern touch: old Elanto building in Hakaniemi, Helsinki
The project consists of the complete renovation of a property previously known as Elanto’s department store, and neighboring buildings attached to it. Together they form a one new hybrid building that offers versatile office, restaurant and retail spaces.
Siltasaari 10 was designed to be an anchor project for the evolving Hakaniemi district in Helsinki and an exemplary case of multi-use conversion project.
Department store facilities were converted into a versatile space program with a variety of office, co-working, commercial and conference spaces and new main lobby.
The uppermost floors of the southern wing were demolished and new ones were built at heights compatible with the floors of the old department store. Most of the concrete frame was reused.
