Kauppatori2017

Kauppatori2017 A competition to redesign one of Helsinki’s most visited places for the centennial year of Finnish independence. Competition launches in December 2015.

A student competition, organized by Aalto University, the City of Helsinki and the Office of Bruce Oreck for finding new concepts for the Market Square through the design of market stall prototypes. The competition will result in built models and an exhibition on the Kauppatori Square. Four finalists will have prototypes on the market square during summer 2016, from which a winner design will be voted for the celebration of the Finnish centennial 2017. The Market Square Design Competition challenges to design a concept for the area and a new model for the market stalls - creating a new Market Square for the city, that fulfills all the promises of the unique location in the heart of the city and showcases the talent of today’s Finland.

Happy New Year 2017! On this first snowy day this year the market is actually crowded!

While some cities and countries remain stars year after year and rely on tourism to make money, others are reconsidering their approach to hosting guests and, in some cases, cutting back significantly.

Kauppatori is one of the most visited places in Finland: During this summer we spent more than 2500 man-hours on the square learning about the opportunities and challenges of what this means in practice. We learned about the complex structure of Kauppatori's stakeholders; the vendors, the customer base, the visitors and the infrastructure providers. We learned about the hard physical work it takes every day to earn your bread and the reasons why people have chosen to do this for a living. We have collected tons of feedback, opinions, analytics and data about the everyday of Kauppatori, as well as memories, stories, moments and friends. We wish to share all of this with you - we don’t quite know yet how - but boy we do have ideas! Help us continue our project by nominating us and help Kauppatori to stay on the top10 market squares in the world!
