Architect Steven Holl is known for his love of light, nature, and its diverse forms. His most famous work in Finland is the Museum of Contemporary Art Kiasma. Now, Holl's internationally acclaimed architecture is making a return to Helsinki with the construction of the Meander building in the heart of Töölö, by the shore of Taivallahti. In this building, Holl's strong vision of sculptural and practical design is combined with Newil&Bau's resident-centered approach, where resident services are also taken to a new level.
Holl graduated from the University of Washington in 1970, founded an office in New York in 1976, and has taught at Columbia University since 1981. Finnish design and Alvar Aalto have had a significant impact on Holl’s career since his studies. Holl has a Scandinavian background, his father is Norwegian.
