Good life and positive change through architectural design
Planning at the heart of sustainable development
The aim of architectural design is to create high-quality, functional buildings and communities suitable for the environment. Design and build a more sustainable society with us, responsibly and profitably.
Architectural design creates conditions for well-being and harmony. We offer sustainable solutions for all kinds of architectural design projects. We understand large entities, are solution-oriented and always work in close cooperation with the rest of the design team.
As architects, we ensure that our vision of a better everyday life is realised in a high-quality, economical and sustainable manner.
At Sweco, we employ approx 130 people in architectural and urban design in Finland. In Europe, we employ more than 1500 architects in nine different countries.
We offer expertise in, for example, developing urban areas, social and health services, school projects and green transition.

We offer a wide range of architectural design services for various construction projects. In addition to new buildings and zoning development, we have solid experience in restoration, repair and conversion projects.
Our services cover a wide range of sectors and needs. We are strong in the design of learning environments, healthcare facilities, work environments, interior design, residential architecture, industrial and energy, and infrastructure.
Our innovative digital tools support sustainable and climate-smart design, and we always strongly consider the impacts of climate change in architectural design. Our sustainability services are spearheaded by low-carbon architecture, comprehensive utilisation of renewable energy and circular economy solutions that promote, among other things, the efficient use of resources.
Creating the cities of the future
The relationship between urban planning and architecture is symbiotic. Successful urban planning creates a framework in which architecture can flourish, while functional and spectacular architecture makes the urban environment more attractive.
Urban planning and development requires multidisciplinary expertise and careful consideration. Our wide range of services enables the profitable implementation of sustainable urban development. Our team’s experienced experts design and implement low-emission, energy-efficient and circular cities that meet future needs.
In urban planning, we consider solutions for increasing rainfall and increasing heat, for example. In addition, we help our customers manage sustainable natural capital in cities and take biodiversity into account.
