3 Fahle House Tartu maantee 84A Tallinn In the United States, the phenomenon of revamped industrial buildings began some decades ago, when the new middle-class became tired of suburban life and started to move back to the city centres 'Loft living' became the new lifestyle and a successful real-estate product Today, this is happening in The Fahle Building, a former paper factory perched on one of the highest points in Tallinn, has become the city's first large-scale example of industrial rebirth It has restaurants, office spaces and now, towering over all this, a new glass box with apartments The objective is clear: to emphasize the imposing factory building by adding a new layer to this landmark, a fashion statement in the form of a sexy glass building overlooking the city The 14-storey structure does not try to blend in or to hide its modern appearance It is a fitting apotheosis for what was, until recently, a heap of crumbling limestone walls 2007 KOKO s Koger & Partners The Fahle Building is public, the newly added apartments are not 3

4 Koidula Street Apartment Building L Koidula Tallinn 3+1 s prove that the suburban dream can be realized down town, too Their apartment building is located in an old neighbourhood, right next to the city centre of Tallinn The complex consists of two parts: a building with six apartments dating from the late 19th-century historicist period, joined to a new three-storey building, which projects into the yard - one of the complex's most valuable assets The building is innovative for its typological variety Each of the ten apartments has a different floor plan and there are several duplexes The façades display a similar differentiation The glazed stairwells visible behind the façade on the garden side, boldly cut through the private sphere and convey a sense of openness, while the street façade, clad with Aluzinc, creates a more closed impression and echoes the folds of the roof forms The project offers the qualities of a detached house, such as privacy and spatial variety, just a 5 minute tram ride from the city centre Project is not public! 2005 Landscape designer 3+1 s Atelier le Balto Private 4

9 Pärnu Residential Building Seedri Tänav Pärnu The seaside town of Pärnu is 's Riviera - dubbed the 'summer capital', it boasts a beautiful sandy beach and around-the-clock night-life in summer urally, Pärnu is associated more than any other town with a white functionalist style Some of the finest works of 1930s architecture, inspired by technological progress and strict modernism, stand here Supelfunktionalism -'swim-funk', if you will- has become Pärnu's trademark, and the everyday life of these buildings is strictly monitored by the heritage conservation authorities Kalle Vellevoog had no problem with this context as he is a staunch adherent of white Funk - meticulous, rigorous, detail-oriented The holiday apartment building he created is fairly strict and imposes clear contours The V-shaped building has gallery access along glassed-in corridors that overlook an interior courtyard with a solitary tree planted in the middle This outdoor area is not for lingering, but for observing the building itself Project is not public!
