Pasuunakuja housing is a social housing block of two apartment buildings in Kannelmäki, Helsinki. These houses are fitted to sit in their urban context by using similar materials and colors as their surroundings. The structures of the houses are a hybrid mix of concrete inside and timber structures on the facades and extruded CLT balconies.
