Tiivistelmä
The intention of this thesis is to propose a solution for the Tulli area in response to the effect which is brought by the development of Tampere city in 10 years, alongside many existing historical buildings in this area. The target of the design offers a modern, aesthetical, and pleasing building that combines locals’ needs, brings better service, and increases the traffic flow in order to activate the character of the Tulli area itself.
The first part of the thesis consists of a study of the history and city context of the Tulli area, the analysis of the Tulli area, and case studies. Information in this part was gathered from archival drawings, literature, and historical photographs. The result of the analysis was drawn from site visiting and analysis. Based on these findings, the proposed concept is a functional hybrid building with a wood structure, which contains better service, flexible public and private working place, and adaptable housing among others. Three case studies were chosen from hybrid buildings which were completed in the last 10 years in Finland. They present various aspects of concepts behind architectural design.
The second part of the thesis is demonstrating, through architectural design, how this new building fits in the city fabric of the Tulli area and how this functional hybrid building suits the needs of the Tulli area. The structure is a CLT wood frame which is aiming to have the low carbon footprint of this hybrid building.
