WHAT The task was to plan an area and

freely choose the suitable functions to

the area. The trafc and landscapearchitecture projects were also a part of

the assignment.

WHERE The site is in Tallinn city centre

by an athletics stadion, which also hosts

in every two years a national dance

celebration. On the other side is a

residential area and an inner city

cemetery greenspace.

RESULT The function of the developped

complex is a dance center that will

attract the area with more people. The

six buildings are 2-4 stories high and

encompass a theatre for dance, training

and rehearsal facilities, accommodation,

administrative and commercial unit. The

buildings are formed by square volumes

which are displaced by every oorcreating cantilevers and interesting roof

terraces. Folded galeries run over the

public space between the buildings. The

underground parking level is connected

and lit by openings. The public areas are

connected to the Vistluse street by

stairs. A smaller square leads to a bigger

public square by the stadium where the

ground is patterned with different

surface coatings. The area of the dance

center buildings is 6581 m2.

INPUT Generally it was a well shared

assignment, but the idea of the form and

layout came from me, which we then

developped together.

APARTMENT HOUSE_6th semester_with Sander Riis

VIEWS

SECTION

URBAN SECTION

WHAT The task was to design an apartment house with a various size of apartments on an emphasis on bigger apartments for families or more exclusive apartments. The shared wirewall

made it even more important for the building to t with the neighbouring new apartment block.

WHERE The plot is situated in a historical residential area Kadriorg, in Tallinn city centre. Residing alongside a wooden milieu area, stone apartment houses on the other side.

RESULT By combining the main elements that surround the site and a new iconic dwelling is designed. The form is inspired from the old wooden houses and gable roofs. The height of the

building climbs from 5th oor to only one. On materials on the contrary are temporary. The apartment house folds towards the private inner yard. The parking is situated on theunderground level. Apartments are planned through two oors and also through the house to offer the habitats the best views and sufcient sunlight. The skylights make the ats evenbetter lit. Many apartments have loggias and a few also a roof terrace. The main concept of the building was to connect, value and enrich the environment of the area.

INPUT The idea of the folding form and to interact with the neighbouring buildings was my input but later on we developped everything together, mirroring eachothers thoughts and ideas.

INTERIOR DESIGN for an apartment_7th semester

WHAT The assignment was to design the interiors for an apartment in a house created on a previous

semester.

WHERE An exclusive apartment on one oor throughout the house with a roof terrace.

RESULT The dominant in the quarters is the dramatically sloping seiling which also makes it more complicated.

The plan is open and forms a row of different habitation functions. The materials and furniture is mostly simple

with some accents leaving the foreplan to the essence of the room. The private roof terrace is a room in the

open air on the warmer season.

NEW FUNCTIONAL SCEME

WHAT The task was to analyze an area and offer new functionalities and scenarios.

WHERE Paljassaare peninsula in Tallinn. By the site there are old ship industries a nature reserve and

a water disposal plant.

FUNCTIONS

URBAN SCENARIOS_7th semester_together with Jaan Kuusemets

RESULT The idea was to preserve the areas industrial nature and place new high-tech facilities there but thereby making it people oriented. Industry is as opened to the public as possible.

By exhibiting the factories and surrounding them with greenery they blend into the surroundings. The principe of the industry is energy circulation. There are windmills placed in the

shallow sea north from the coast which will supply Tallinn with electric energy. In addition there is a new energy cable connection, Estlink 2 (connects Estonia with scandinavian energy

stock) planned nearby. To stabilize the unsteady energy supply coming from the windmills there is planned a compensating gas turbine plant, which also uses the methane from the water

disposal plant. To deal with the waste issue ecologically there is also a plasma gasication waste plant which uses the waste of Tallinn, nearby areas and can also receive import wastethrough the nearby ports. The product of the plant is heat and fuel, which can also be exported. The disposal plant supplys both plants with coolingwater. The additional therms and

greenhouses use the heat from the gasication plant, the peat which is the surplus from the water disposal and also the water. A nowadays poor industrial area will be an innovative andgreen manufacturing space.

WHAT A young architects competition to nd a design for the columbarium and the surrounding area.

WHERE In Rohuneeme cemetery by the sea on the outskirts of Tallinn.

RESULT 8 simple burial areas are simple square forms. The initial round planning developped into a square. The inspiration is from old stone burial grounds and japanese gardens.The urnsare placed in the walls which stand below the ground level. The urnboxes are offcet by a rythm which is even more interesting when all the holes are not lled with metal drawers yet. In themiddle of some 'courtyard's is a cherrytree, which transfroms with seasons and displays the cycles of life. The lighting is discreete and allows the simple landscape to rest.

INPUT The design process was a join effort, the drawings and 3d seen here were my work.

TALLINN BEACHPROMENADE PUBLIC SPACE PLANNING IN THE SECTION OF NOBLESSNERI KALARANNA_2011 spring

WHAT: The planning encompasses Tallinn beach promenade in the section from Kalaranna to Noblessner and borders with the city centre and Kalamaja naberhood. The project takes onthe issue of the seaside, which is one of the most important areas in the development of the city. Tallinns seafront is long and alternating, but for the reasons mostly deriving from thehistory, the seaside areas are under developped and not reconstructed. The city is not opened to the sea and the situation has not changed in twenty years which have passed fromthe soviet regime, when the seaside was closed.

KUS: The area from Kalasadam ('Fishport') pool to Noblessner docks is the most perspective and closest to the city center and Old Town.

IDEE: The original question was, how to bring people from the city centre and Kalamaja ('Fishhouse') region to the seaside and to turn the beachpromenade into an atractive place. Theheart of the city needs to be connected to the sea. The seaside areas conseal an enormous potential, which is waiting to be revealed. Todays visions and detail plannings impose thatthe different parts of the promenade must be settled with an architectural competitions. But since the sections are fragmented between different detail plannings, a threat remains,that a consistent and coherent public space will not generate. The given section holds special importance welcoming the arrivals to the city and to the city centre. It is important to seethe possibilities in the area as a recreational place, of which is a lack of in Norhen-Tallinn area. There are several historically and culturally important buildings by the promenade, manyvaluable functions and atractive views to the city and the sea. The main idea of the project comes from Jri Lotmans semisphere theory, which claims, that the edges are what an area/object/phenomenon. Edges are what include and exclude. The same applies to a city where its edges are what speaks of its essence and potential. Edges are the essence

RESULT: The beach promenade recreates Kalamaja's seaside identity. The city and the seaside are connected into a whole. The promenade considers the existing views, valuable andhistorical objects and the sea. The purpose while planning the promenade was to connect the seaside into a whole with the city, bringing them closer together. The estetics of the edgeis expressed also in the architectural design, displaying folded surfaces and angular forms. The buildings are placed into the transversal points or places with a view, ie Maritime museumquay building. There are also lights and urban furniture and forms designed for the area. To offer the comfort and possibility to keep oneself warm also in the colder season there arepavilions and buildings in every now and then placed around the promenade. In some places the promenade descends to the sea with stairs. The promenade is in tow levels in frontPatarei building, whereas by the water is a light c route and recreational area and higher above a pathway with barriers oriented to the opening views. The promenade path mostlyruns by the water, but the new public space expands in Kalaranna for the whole green space, from the sea to the 'Cultural kilometre'.

In front of the Maritime museum will be a public square, with a walkable and playful fountain d and l wood installations. Thepromenade continues a in the quay, where there are shelters with water taxi stops and boat rentals. In the end of the quay is a buliding whichpresents and values the opening views with a restaurant and cafeteria and an other viewing platform.By the Maritime museum is the harbour building for servicing the port. Infront of the apartment houses in Noblessner an other staircase isplaced, bringing people closer to the water. Between the buildings is a heritage site with Elling park. In Peter's port is place for Louis Kahn'sconcert boat and continually a yacht and

harbour, offering a spectacle during summertime. In the wintertime boats are lifterd by thepromenade and on the shipyard square. Promenade continues in Peter port quay, ending with the third view platform. In the end of thepromenade section is the second watertaxi stop.

RESULT: Additionally to the promenade and cityscape a visitor harbour is planned to Kalaranna with g gear rental-shop and a boat hire. There is also abeach with a park, which is very important to North-Tallinn as a recreational area. Secondly there is a growing building front by the future Kalaranna street, bythe glint and connects the park with the higher Suur-Patarei street by bridges. The bridges disembouge into the walkable roof, which directs the visitors to thepromenade. The building contains public, business and service spaces. The beach has a diving tower, potential circus area, ball courts and playgrounds. On thewater are wooden surfaces, to be used by sunbathers, for being closer to and move on water.Moving towards Patarei there is a steep rise of the ground and in the narrow connection is a building sitting in the landscape, which connects the light from Suur-Patarei street with the park and beach. The building contains a schop and other service areas. By the building is a dog ground and beach. Thepromenade continues in two levels, one in front of Paratrei fortress, the other one below the coast, partly covered by the upper one, giving therefor shelterfrom the bad weather. The surfaces on water continue, further from the shore, connected with joints. The upper glint walk is protected by a folded barrier,made of metal and glass, which allows to preserve the views. The barrier carries also the information boards. Throuhgout the whole promenade there are glassbarriers which give shelter from the wind and rain (also possible to use for presenting information and maps. Using glass allows to keep the valuable viewsopened.The next centerpoint is between Patarei and the Maritime Museum, where a building with a viewpoint, platform and rental is placed. Monumental stairs and tworamps descend leading down by the sea. Behind the building a community garden is situated with greenhouses.

WHAT: A planning which deals with ways of livingWHERE: A beautiful scarcely populated island in Tallinn bay situated by the capital and many connection routes. The place acts as a tabula rasa allows us to use it as a laboratory for the new ways of living.INPUT: The project was developped together developing shared ideas.IDEA: The idea was to play with the concept of future living and question ourselves how do we portray a possible way for living. How is the future society built up, what is important and how could architecture support it? We see a new kind of total architecture which acts as net-work to be the economical and efficient solution. A slowly developing and everchanging network will spread all over the island leaving intact wild nature island between the structure. The structure is flexible and considers the existing old roads and landscape. All possible functions are resolved within the structure- the edifice contains public space, housing, roads and other infrastructure. The roofs and inner streets func-tion as roads and all initiating public space while the atriums and squares serve as light wells and vertical connectors. The actual housing within the structure can vary in all kinds of forms and ways. The form allows democratic views and sufficient daylight and connects with the sur-rounding nature. The grid network offers stability and alternating space. The new kind of hybrid house is on one side universal yet comes from local circumstances and is alwas different.

competition_A new spatial solution for Tammsaare park KRVEMAA_teamwork_winter 2012

WHAT: A competition for a new spatial solution for Tammsaare park

IDEA: The new design for Tammsaare park originates from the historical spaces of the park and creates a more versatile park space. The area was divided into zones by the old market building. An open air theatre is planned there by the competition work. There will be a recreation ground in the area where the statue of Tammsaare is situated- "Tammsaare park". A nowadays unused park by the opera house a public city and park space with City Square and Theater park is placed.

WHERE: A historical park in Tallinn city centreINPUT: A collective input into the design process and creating the 3d and visualizations

52

IDEA: In the centre of the recreational area in Tammsaare Park is a shallow pond and a drumlin landscape opening to the southern side. The design cre-ates a peaceful park space surrounding the central statue and directs the more active light traffic past it. A new context is created for the statue- flow-ing landscape with a 'lake', which can be perceived as a hint to the Tammsaares place of origin.The new 'Grass theater', with its vines, marks the position of the old market building. The outer naves of the new building are in year-round use with kiosks, cafeteria and bathroom facilities. The central nave functions as an estival open air theater. There is a possibility to create a connection between an adjacent park over the road. The square can be used for pubic events and an underground parking lot lies below it.
