The central fire station is one of Finland’s most modern fire stations. Through coloured, durable and easy-to-use Swisspearl facade boards have been used for the building facades. The mainly white facade has been enlivened in places with down-to-earth accent colours. For the Linnanmaa main fire station, it was important for the architect to design a building that is efficient and supports rescue operations as well as possible, while also taking ecological and cityscape perspectives into account. The project aimed for the construction and use of the building to be as energy-efficient and low-carbon as possible. With the rhythmic variation in the colours of the accent components, the architect wanted to convey a smaller scale as well as a down-to-earth, grainfield-like atmosphere that help the large building fit into the surroundings.
