Meander Housing Celebrates Grand Opening During Helsinki Design Week

Meander recently celebrated its grand opening during Helsinki Design Week, attended by Steven Holl and Dimitra Tsachrelia.

“Meander Housing is a competition we won 17 years ago with the idea of the meandering form that shapes space because the site is inside of a bounded block. Because of the simple shape of the meandering line, all apartments are different and they gradually rise to face the sea. There is a kind of  musical score-like aspect, and you can see it expressed in the gardens and void spaces that articulate the original concept.” –Steven Holl
