2022年5月24日，芬兰图尔库港新渡轮码头建筑竞赛结果宣布，芬兰PES建筑设计事务所的提案“折纸”（ORIGAMI）成为最终获胜者。

 

竞赛分为两轮，第一轮由竞赛委员会根据公司以往的业绩确定五家单位，在去年秋天进行第一轮角逐，经过评委匿名投票选择三家设计机构：Zaha Hadid Architects，JKMM，PES-Architects ， 入围第二轮，而PES最终赢得竞赛。

 

图尔库是芬兰的旧都，也是历史悠久的港口城市。城市中心留存有众多历史遗迹，竞赛场地旁边的图尔库城堡，其建造历史最早可追溯到13世纪末期，是芬兰最大的城堡，也是其境内最为古老的建筑之一。

 

本次的竞赛是图尔库新渡轮码头的建筑设计。该项目希望将图尔库客运港升级为当代、便捷和安全的船舶交通枢纽。除了为港口运营的两条渡轮线路提供顺畅的乘客体验外，新码头还肩负着重塑城市环境的重任。新码头所处的图尔库城堡区域历史悠久，其敏感的城市环境需要的极为精密的高标准设计。

 

评审团认为，PES的“折纸”提案在功能与环境契合度方面最符合城市的预期。而提案非凡而富有表现力的形态也给予评审团惊喜。

 

“人们常常乘坐游轮从日常生活的磨难中逃离片刻，而码头的出现正提醒乘客接下来曼妙的海上旅程，给予来宾轻盈的情绪。该提案闪耀而动感。建筑语言基于拓扑变化的三角形表面：钢板，玻璃，铝材等多种材料被玩心满满的组合搭配。设计同时具有银色鲑鱼皮或钢制船只等海洋意向。虽然题目并不对应于海的世界，但日本折纸的隐喻是迷人的，它指向一个笼罩在想象中的异域。”

 

建筑技术解决方案是从码头建筑高损耗，低维护的角度考虑：建筑的铝制“雨衣”提供了较长的使用寿命。项目的流线设置是成功的，室内停车场将短期停车和落客交通分开，行之有效的解决了不同流线的互相干扰，而集散广场自然而然地贴合建筑的入口，极好的引导与疏散人流。

该建筑灵活可变，内部充盈着海风。入口大厅的木墙为作为外立面玻璃，钢铁和铝世界的对照，为进入的旅客增添了温暖的包裹。缓缓向上进入侯船大厅，来宾情绪变得更加宁静，并且可以欣赏到即将踏足的大海壮阔的美景。紧靠大厅设置露台，更可欣赏历史悠久的图尔库城堡区域美景。

 

图尔库港有限公司董事与总经理，同时也是本次竞赛的评委会主席Erik Söderholm认为，获奖方案为客运站的进一步发展提供了良好的基础。

 

“竞争第二阶段的所有提案都是高质量的。评审团在其间选择了一个，PES的“折纸”提案最好的贴合了码头的功能需求，同时又极能契合不断发展的城堡区域的特有的环境和景观。获奖方案为客运码头的进一步发展提供了良好的平台。在即将到来的实施阶段，我们将与未来的用户，建筑师和项目管理承包商密切合作，深入探讨，平衡方案的成本效益与社会需求。”

 

芬兰地处亚欧之间，被称为“北欧中转站”，海陆空领域都是北欧地区的枢纽。航空方面，首都赫尔辛基提供北欧地区到亚洲最近的机场，是北欧最繁忙的机场。铁路系统发达，除国内交通外，东接西伯利亚大铁路直至东亚。芬兰西南部临波罗的海，有图尔库，瓦萨，奥卢，赫尔辛基等众多港口城市，芬兰PES建筑设计事务所是芬兰交通建筑设计领域的领军团队，从1987年开始第一期设计逐渐扩容至今的赫尔辛基国际机场，2009年开始设计连接机场到市区的KEHÄRATA环线铁路各站点，到2017年完工的赫尔辛基西港2号码头，都是芬兰交通建筑界的精品项目。

 

本次竞赛的主建筑师，也是PES的合伙人，赫尔辛基西港2号码头主设计师 Tuomas Silvennoinen讲到：“被邀请参加这项重要竞赛对我们来说是一项巨大的荣誉，也是挑战。很高兴与图尔库港合作开始规划新的码头。码头建筑既服务于日常旅行，也适合在更特殊的场合使用，对我们来说是一个熟悉的设计领域。我们也认为在交通建筑方面付出的努力对城市具有大的价值。”

 

中标建筑机构与业主达成设计协议。这项工作将继续与各方合作，进入深化阶段，从2022年夏末延长至2023年春季。届时，项目将进入实施阶段。目标是到2026年初，新的客运码头投入使用。

On May 24^th,2022， the Port of Turku Architectural Competition for Ferry Terminal declared the final winner, PES-Architects with their ORIGAMI.

 

Five offices/teams were invited to participate in the first phase of the competition based on references, and three entries were selected anonymously for the second phase. In the finals, our Origami beat Zaha Hadid’s Aallonharja and JKMM’s FOKKA.

 

As the former capital of Finland and a port city with a long history, Turku has many historical relics in the city center, especially the Turku Castle adjacent to the site, whose construction dates back to the end of the 13th century, and scale ranks at the top and age among the top ones in whole Finnish territory.

 

The Ferry Terminal Turku Project hopes to upgrade the Turku passenger harbor into a maritime hub for modern, streamlined and safe vessel traffic. In addition to providing a smooth passenger experience for both of the ferry lines operating out of the port, the new terminal is also expected to meet the high architectural standards required in the sensitive urban context near the historic Turku Castle.

 

The jury considered ORIGAMI best matching the goals set for the terminal in terms of functionality and fitting in the surroundings with its exceptional and expressive architecture. People often go on a cruise to take a break from the daily grind, and the appearance of the terminal building sets the passengers in the right mood for a sea voyage. The proposal has flamboyance and movement. The architecture is based on oblique triangular surfaces; play with steel, glass and aluminium. With the design associating maritime symbolism with silvery salmon skin or steel ships, the name ORIGAMI, Japanese transcription of their paper-folding sculpture, as a metaphor makes even more imaginative appeal of the exotic than if directly pointing to the sea.

 

With its technical solution handled from the point of view of maintenance, the building has a “raincoat” made of long lifespan aluminum. The circulation is also successful in separating the short-term parking and drop-off traffic in the indoor parking lot to effective avoidance of mutual interference. The distribution plaza naturally fits the entrance of the building, providing excellent guidance and evacuation. Flexible and drafty, the building also has a warm feel with a wooden wall in the entrance lobby added to the facade of glass, steel and aluminum. Slowly ascending into the waiting ship hall, the passengers' mood becomes more tranquil along with the magnificent view of the sea they are about to set foot on. Next to the hall, there is a terrace with a view of the historic Turku Castle area.

 

It is believed that the winning proposal provides a sound foundation for the further development of the passenger station.

 

“All proposals in phase two of the competition were of high quality. Among them, the ORIGAMI the jury chose not only fitted the pier’s own functional goal, but also best fulfills the environment and landscape of the evolving Castle district. The winning proposal provides us with a good basis for further development of the passenger terminal. In the upcoming construction phase, the client’s project management will focus on cost-efficiency as well as improving the functionality and use of the premises in particular, in co-operation with the future users, designers and project management contractors”, says Erik Söderholm, Managing Director of Port of Turku Ltd who acted as the chairman of the jury.

 

Located between Asia and Europe, Finland is lauded as the "Nordic transit station", a threefold hub by sea, land and air. In terms of aviation, the capital Helsinki has the closest Asia-ward and busiest airport in the Nordic region; in terms of railways, the network is so well developed that not only domestically, but also the Trans-Siberian Railway heading for East Asia is connected; in terms of sea routes, Finland faces the Baltic Sea southwestward with many port cities such as Turku, Vaasa, Oulu and Helsinki. In the Finnish arena of transportation architecture, PES Architects is a leading team, from the Helsinki International Airport expanded to this day since 1987, the KEHÄRATA Ring Railway stations connecting the airport to the urban area since 2009, to the Helsinki Westport Pier 2 completed in 2018, all boutique projects in the Finnish transportation construction industry.

 

“To be invited to this prestigious competition was a big honor for us. Great pleasure to start planning the new terminal in collaboration with the Port of Turku. Terminal architecture serves its users both for everyday travel as well as on more special occasions and is a familiar design area for us. The will to put an effort in the planning of transport buildings is very valuable”, says the chief designer of the competition proposal, architect SAFA Tuomas Silvennoinen from PES-Architects Ltd.

 

An agreement on principal and architectural design will be made with the winning architecture agency to continue detailing in co-operation with the other parties since late summer 2022 and begin construction in spring 2023 to put the new passenger terminal in use by early 2026.
