Wood City - a unique wooden construction project in Finland

Stora Enso plans to undertake a unique wooden construction project in Helsinki
called Wood City in collaboration with the construction company SRV.

The world-class project includes office, hotel and commercial buildings to be built of wood. The first buildings are expected to be completed in 2013 in Jätkäsaari area.

A high standard, internationally interesting and progressive plan for Wood City will be sought through an invitation-only design competition.

Wood City, the eight-storey high Bridport House in London, a shopping centre in Vienna and the Finnish Nature Centre Haltia are all real proof points of projects in which Stora Enso's building solutions have a key role, heralding the dawning of a new era of wood construction.
