Leppävaara Center Competition

The City of Espoo organized an architectural competition for the new Center of Leppävaara to connect the southern and northern Leppävaara over an existing railroad line. We teamed Echo Urban Design, Raivo Bumann, SRV and Ramboll to develop a concept that utilizes the existing city structure and creates both a new connection with a transport hub and a human scale to the new center of Leppävaara.
