SARC Architects is an Architectural company based in Helsinki, Finland that offers the full range of Architectural services. We have over 50 years of wide-ranging and diverse experience within the different fields of Architectural planning and design. Our projects vary from office, retail and residential to hospitals, university, and public buildings as well as laboratories and museums. We have years of experience in both new buildings with demanding briefs as well as sensitive renovation projects many of those being listed buildings. Changes in use and development projects for protected sites and investment properties are our strengths. In addition to Architectural Design, we are leaders in user-orientated interior planning and design finding innovative solutions for businesses to support their working philosophy. This covers all aspects of interior fit-out from furniture and space planning to shell and core. One of the central elements of our company is our fostering of long-lasting and successful client relationships. From the beginning, we have been able to retain the trust of the many different parties connected to our business, from clients to our consulting partners. Our client base includes, for example, all the leading Finnish construction and development companies, several institutionalized investors, universities, and hospitals. Though the majority of our projects are direct commissions, we have won more than 40 prizes from both domestic and international Architectural competitions. Just a few of the examples of the recognition we have received are; the Finlandia Prize for Architecture 2018, Awards for Wood and Steel Construction (2004 & 2005) and being invited to the Venice Biennale 2004 and 2006. Our work has been also extensively published in the global press and professional literature. At SARC Architects we have a growing international team of almost 70 professionals.
