The impressive wooden concert and congress centre rose on the Vesijärvi
waterfront in Lahti in spring 2000. Its architects, Hannu Tikka and Kimmo Lintula,
explained that the main source of inspiration in the design was Finnish forests.
The forest always provided our ancestors with nourishment and raw materials,
but it also involves mythical memories and scents – it has a relaxing essence.
Another natural starting point in the design came from the industrial history of
the site, the uncomplicated aesthetics of the old brick buildings, and the vicinity of
water.
