act to reflect

The proposed museum in Helsinki is designed to integrate seamlessly with the existing and planned neighborhood, ensuring that the important sightlines of the

area remain unobstructed. The building's form is inspired by the surrounding structures, allowing it to blend harmoniously into the city of Helsinki.

The museum features a reflective facade, which captures and mirrors the environment and the varying light conditions throughout the day. This creates a dynamic interaction between the building and its surroundings, making the museum appear different depending on the time of day and weather, thus enhancing its visual appeal.

A key aspect of the design is its connection to the city's pedestrian network. The planned pedestrian zones are seamlessly linked to the museum, with the building's exterior connecting directly to the Sea Terrace. This design allows visitors to experience the museum not only from the outside but also to walk through it, providing an immersive experience that highlights the interplay between architecture and nature. The ability to pass through the museum creates a fluid connection between the city and the sea, enriching the public space and offering a new, attractive route for pedestrians.
