Extract from the Finnish Architecture 2010-2011 jury report by Juhani Pallasmaa:

“The extremely reductive formal language, materiality and detailing deviates from current Finnish modernism, being reminiscent of certain recent Japanese projects. However, the reductivism seems motivated as it strikes up an arresting dialogue with the existing setting.”
