苏维拉小教堂 | 2017年米斯·范德罗奖提名
苏维拉小教堂由埃斯波教区联盟委托建造，将由埃斯波教区联盟、埃斯波瑞典教区和埃斯波市共同使用，以服务整个苏维拉社区。这是一座多功能建筑，为社区居民提供一个共同使用的空间，以满足他们不同的需求，无论其宗教信仰如何。
OOPEAA于2012年开始设计和规划苏维拉小教堂及附近的社区公园。目标是创造一座具有强烈自身特色的建筑，同时与其郊区邻里的多元文化背景进行对话。
苏维拉是赫尔辛基大都市区最具多元文化的地区之一，约三分之一的居民为外籍人士。文化多样性既是社区的丰富潜力，也是挑战。在苏维拉小教堂及邻近社区公园的设计中，目标是创造一个提供丰富多样活动机会的建筑，并为居民提供一个灵活适应和功能齐全的聚会空间。
由于芬兰的冬季相对漫长、黑暗且寒冷，公共室内空间在作为人们聚集的场所方面发挥着重要作用。公共建筑，如学校和图书馆，以及教堂和小教堂，提供开放给所有人的空间。提供学校、图书馆和教堂作为人们在共享空间上聚集的场所，深深植根于芬兰的文化传统。这些建筑作为市民发起的各种活动的平台，促进了通过合作和共同生活的思想交流。它们被设计为包含公共空间，提供地方社区举行会议和活动的场所，并围绕各种活动聚集，无论是日常活动还是特殊场合。苏维拉小教堂是这一传统的一部分，其教堂和小教堂的建筑提供了多种功能的框架，为社区居民聚集提供了场所。
小教堂提供了一个可接近和温馨的空间，具有人性化的尺度和宜人的氛围。该建筑服务于多种功能，为许多不同类型的组织提供了一个基地，形成一个充满活力的活动场所。它首先是一个聚会场所，服务于教区成员和社区中的其他群体。
当地社区公园及其服务是该建筑的三个主要使用者之一，为儿童及其父母提供了多种使用空间的机会。这里有课后儿童照顾服务以及幼儿日托服务。还有青少年活动空间以及供各种地方社区俱乐部使用的活动空间。该建筑为教区员工以及社会工作者和家庭服务提供了办公空间，以帮助人们满足生活中的各种需求。
建筑内还设有一个提供低价食物的施粥所。小教堂自然也作为弥撒、音乐会、婚礼、葬礼和洗礼的场所。
建筑内不同功能的布局从外部可识别。虽然建筑的高度差异很大，以小教堂大厅为最高部分，但所有功能都位于同一层，建筑呈现出一个单一的U形结构，形成一个亲密的内部庭院。钟楼嵌入主建筑体量中，为庭院提供了进一步的封闭感。
建筑内的不同功能围绕内部庭院布局。主入口位于U形建筑打开庭院的角落，主小教堂大厅及其辅助空间位于建筑的东北部。教区工作人员的办公室和工作空间以及额外的会议和小组工作空间位于U形体量的中部。儿童和青少年的活动空间以及租给城市以服务社区公园的空间位于建筑的西部。虽然大多数内部空间面向庭院，但社区公园占用的空间则面向公园外部。
该建筑是一个混合结构，包含木材、混凝土和钢材元素。材料的触感在建筑的内部和外部都有意地强烈存在。外壳完全用铜包覆，以强调建筑多样体量的统一性。铜是外部材料的生态选择，既耐用又可回收，因此可持续。它也能很好地老化，随着时间的推移获得美丽的铜绿。内部使用的材料是当地的云杉。在儿童活动空间中，木材也出现在户外遮篷上，为孩子们提供雨天避雨的机会，让他们即使在下雨天气也能在户外玩耍。木材的存在在高大的小教堂大厅中最为显著，墙壁上覆盖着木质细材。
Nominated for the Mies van der Rohe Award 2017.
The Suvela chapel was commissioned by the Espoo Parish Union and it will be used jointly by the Espoo Parish Union, the Swedish Parish of Espoo and the City of Espoo to serve the entire community of Suvela. It is a multifunctional building that offers a space for the people of the community to use together for their many different needs regardless of their religious affiliation.
OOPEAA embarked on the design and planning for the Suvela Chapel and the nearby community park in 2012. The goal was to create a building that has a strong identity of its own while also entering in dialogue with the multicultural context of its suburban neighborhood.
With roughly one third of the inhabitants being of foreign descent, Suvela is one of the most multicultural districts in the Helsinki metropolitan region. Cultural diversity is both a rich potential and a challenge to the community. In the design for the Suvela Chapel and the adjacent community park, the goal was to create a building that offers opportunities for a rich variety of activities and provides a framework for the residents to come together in a flexibly adaptable and functional space.
Due to the relatively long, dark, and cold winters, communal indoor spaces play an important role as places for people to gather in Finland. Public buildings, such as schools and libraries, as well as churches and chapels offer spaces that are open to all. Providing schools, libraries and churches as places where people can come together on the common ground of a shared space has deep roots in the cultural tradition of Finland. These buildings serve as platforms for a variety of activities initiated by the citizens, thereby facilitating the exchange of ideas through collaboration and working and enjoying life together. They are designed to include communal spaces that offer places where local communities may hold meetings and events and where they can come together around various activities, both in the everyday as well as for special occasions. The Suvela Chapel is part of this tradition in which the architecture of church buildings and chapels offers a framework for a multiplicity of functions and a place for people of the community to come together.
The chapel offers an approachable and welcoming space with a human scale and an inviting atmosphere. The building serves many functions providing a home base for many different kinds of organizations and forming as a dynamic place of activity. It is first and foremost a meeting place that serves members of the parish and other groups of people in the community alike.
The local community park with its services is one of the three principal users of the building offering the children and their parents an opportunity to use the space in various ways. There is afternoon care for children after school as well as day care services for younger children. There are spaces for the youth as well as spaces for the various local community clubs to use for their activities. The building offers office space for the employees of the parish as well as for social workers and family services provided for helping people in their various needs in their lives.
A soup kitchen providing food for a very low cost is operating in the premises as well. The chapel naturally also serves as a place for mass, concerts, weddings, funerals, and baptizings.
The location of the various functions in the different parts of the building is identifiable from the outside. While the height of the building varies greatly with the chapel hall as the tallest part, all functions are placed on just one level, and the building wraps into a single U-shaped entity forming an intimate interior courtyard in the middle. The belfry is embedded in the main building volume providing further closure to the yard.
The different functions in the building orient themselves around the inner courtyard. The main entrance is placed in a corner where the U-shaped building opens to the courtyard, The main chapel hall with its auxiliary spaces is located in the north-east part of the builduing. Offices and work spaces of the parish staff as well as additional meeting and group work spaces are located in the middle part of the U-shaped volume. Spaces for children and the youth as well as spaces that are rented out to the city to serve the community park are located in the west part of the building. While the majority of the interior spaces face the yard, the spaces occupied by the community park face outward to the park.
The building is a hybrid structure with wooden as well as concrete and steel elements. A tactile sense of material has a deliberately strong presence both in the interiors as well in the exterior of the building. The exterior shell is entirely clad in copper to emphasize the unity of the varied volume of the building. Copper was an ecological choice of material for the exterior. It is both durable and recyclable and therefore sustainable. It also ages well and acquires a beautiful patina over time. Local spruce is the material used in the interiors. In the spaces for the children’s activities, wood is present also in the outdoor canopies that provide shelter from rain giving the children an opportunity to play outside even in rainy weather. The presence of wood is most prominent in the tall chapel hall where the walls are covered with wooden scantlings.
