芬兰驻新德里大使馆翻新印度新德里

Embassy of Finland in New Delhi Renovation New Delhi,India

皮耶蒂莱夫妇(Reima and Raili Pietilä)赢得了1963年的芬兰大使馆设计竞赛,该大使馆位于新德里查卡雅布里的外交飞地,参赛作品美而有力,名为“雪在山上说”。经过长时间的拖延,该项目于1980年被正式委托,并在原有概念的基础上重新进行了设计。大使馆最终于1986年开放,1960年设计的巨大单体屋顶被分成六个独立建筑,围绕在一个中心花园周围。雕塑般的屋顶,这是大使馆最显著的建筑特征,类似于芬兰北部库萨莫附近的雪湖Kitkajärvi。

Reima and Raili Pietilä won the design competition for the Finnish Embassy to be located in the diplomatic enclave in Chanakyapuri, New Delhi in 1963 with a beautiful and powerful competition entry called “Snow speaks on the mountains”. After a lengthy delay, the project was commissioned in 1980 and redesigned based on the original concept. The Embassy finally opened in 1986 with the large single expanse of the roof of the 1960’s design broken up into six separate lateral buildings around a central garden area. The sculptural roofs - the most significant architectural feature of the embassy compound - resemble the forms of the snowy Lake Kitkajärvi near Kuusamo, Northern Finland.
