“Jõeorg” awarded third prize in Maakri Quarter Competition
Lundén Architecture Company has received third prize in the open architecture and urban space competition for their proposal of a resilient new quarter in Maakri, Tallinn. “Jõeorg” proposes a contemporary urban river valley that will serve as the city’s blue-green heart. The design reintroduces a natural, functioning river landscape reminiscent of the historic Härjapea River, creating a vital green and blue artery to meet both current and future environmental needs. Strategically located between local and tourist attractions, Jõeorg aims to be a dynamic and inclusive destination for residents and visitors, blending the past and future in one biodiverse and culturally rich environment within Tallinn’s iconic skyline.
The proposal was developed by Lundén Architecture Company in collaboration with Tallinn-based office, Arhitekt11. The two offices are currently constructing Raadi Daycare, the first building in their winning design for the Raadi Educational and Community Centre.
