Architectural design
Granlund’s architectural design delivers human-centred, functional and architecturally high-quality solutions for new construction and renovation projects of all scales. We design spaces that improve people’s everyday lives and are built to last.
Our approach
SUSTAINABLE AND HUMANE ARCHITECTURE WITH STRONG TECHNICAL EXPERTISE
Granlund’s architectural design brings together client focus, architectural quality and strong technical understanding to create functional and sustainable premises.
Multidisciplinary collaboration, local presence and a nationwide network of experts ensure that architecture plays an integral role in the successful delivery of each project.
New construction
We design new buildings that meet operational needs and enable seamless everyday use. We manage the entire process from project planning to completion, ensuring the building serves its users for years to come.
Renovation
We design renovation solutions that improve the functionality and usability of existing spaces, while remaining sensitive to the building’s heritage. We create environments that meet today’s requirements and adapt to future needs.

SUSTAINABILITY AT THE HEART OF ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN
Sustainability is a core principle in everything we do. We assess the impact of different solutions on carbon footprint, energy efficiency and lifecycle costs, and support our clients in making sustainable choices throughout the building’s lifecycle.
In sustainability, we look beyond minimising environmental impact — we also consider the positive contribution a building can make to its environment and community. We guide our clients towards solutions that endure, remain adaptable and, at their best, become part of a built heritage that is valued and cared for by future generations.
We support you throughout the construction project
END-TO-END PARTNERSHIP
We assess the project’s requirements and the site’s development potential, and identify cost-effective and energy-efficient solutions in line with quality and sustainability principles.
DECISION-MAKING SUPPORT
We take into account project schedules, planning regulations, heritage conservation requirements and environmental considerations to support you at every stage.
COLLABORATIVE DESIGN
We produce visual material to support decision-making and, where needed, bring end users into the process to validate plans and ensure the spaces work as intended.
DATA-DRIVEN DESIGN
We utilise the latest research, data and digital tools to lead the design process holistically, make better decisions early and deliver a high-quality end result.
We design hospital environments that support well-being
It is important that the architecture of hospitals fits into the local cityscape. We design the architecture, space solutions and functionalities of healthcare buildings with a user-oriented approach.
Together with the users, we create premises that will also support hospital operations and the overall wellbeing of people in the future. We offer architectural design for somatic and psychiatric hospitals as well as social welfare and healthcare centers and health centers.
