Ukonniemi's idea competition has ended and the proposals received are available for the public to see - vote for the best idea you think

Imatra and Lappset Group Oy organized an idea competition to renovate the area of ​​the former nursery in Ukonniemi. The idea competition sought new views on how the area could be developed to better serve city residents and tourists.
 
Through the design competition, ideas were sought for such an environment that, even in terms of scenery, encourages people and families who exercise little to try and experience the joy of exercise.

The competition was aimed at landscape design students. The competition period was the whole autumn and it ended on January 7.1.2020, 16. There were a total of XNUMX competition proposals.
The public gets to choose their favorite. Public voting ends on 31.1.2020 January XNUMX.

Today, the award committee met to select the final winning entries. The winners will be announced in Jyväskylä on Viherpääi on February 12-13.2.2020, XNUMX. In the same context, the winner of the public vote will be announced, as well as the winner selected by the shadow board formed by the students of the University of Jyväskylä's physical education.

Lappset has been organizing regional planning idea competitions in cooperation with its municipal and city customers for over 40 years. The competition intended for students of landscape architecture and design offers an authentic design target, which this time was the area of ​​a former nursery in Ukonniemi in the city of Imatra.
