SATO has developed a new-generation housing solution in response to the need for affordable housing in the Helsinki Metropolitan Area. The model home was presented at the Vantaa Housing Fair, which ended on Sunday.

Designed for new-build properties, SATO StudioHomes are spacious studio apartments with high functionality and tailored fixtures, fittings and decor solutions. The homes also feature convenient sleeping lofts and balconies for added comfort. With impressive ceiling heights of almost 4 m, these are modern homes in apartment blocks with an affordable rent. The StudioHome buildings will also feature pleasant common lounge areas and a sauna section with a rooftop terrace.

Investment Manager Miikka Karjaluoto:

 

  • It was a pleasure to present the concept to a large number of visitors interested in housing. Our showcase home attracted all age groups and a variety of professions. Authorities and decision-makers were also interested in seeing how good design can make a home with a small floor area highly functional and comfortable.

  • The popularity of the model home was a positive surprise, and the comments we received on it gave us further confidence in the feasibility of the concept.

The pilot property for the concept is planned for Raikukuja street in Martinlaakso, Vantaa.
