Design Competition for New Museum of Architecture & Design in Helsinki

Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on LinkedinShare by Email

The competition for the Architecture & Design Museum Helsinki is conducted internationally in partnership with the City of Helsinki and the Finnish Association of Architects (SAFA), spanning two stages from April 2024 to September 2025. This competition seeks to procure a design for a distinctive museum building that will celebrate the rich heritage and innovative spirit of Finnish and Nordic design and architecture on a global scale.
The new museum has emerged from the merger of the Museum of Finnish Architecture (established in 1952) and the Design Museum (established in 1873) at the outset of 2024. Situated in the Makasiiniranta waterfront district within Helsinki’s South Harbour, adjacent to the UNESCO World Heritage Site of The Suomenlinna Sea Fortress, the designated site for the new museum building holds significant cultural and historical value. Thoughtful consideration of this location will be integral to the design process, as the museum will serve as the focal point of a new public realm, fostering connectivity between visitors and residents alike.
Stage 1 of the competition (15 Apr~29 Aug 2024), participants will submit an architectural concept, explain its relationship with the surrounding cityscape and create an initial building design that meets the functional requirements and financial criteria laid out in the competition brief. To Stage 2 of the competition (Feb~May 2025), the jury will select 3 to 5 entries that both meet the evaluation criteria and exhibit the greatest development potential. The AD Museum is scheduled to open its doors in 2030, with construction slated to commence in 2027.
