Finlandia Prize for Architecture 2025

The 2025 Finlandia Prize for Architecture was awarded to Katajanokan Laituri, designed by Anttinen Oiva Architects, on 6 October 2025.

Three other projects were also shortlisted for the 2025 Finlandia Prize for Architecture: the refurbishment of Finlandia Hall, Meander housing development, and the Vuosaari Bioenergy Heating Plant.

In 2025, the Finnish Association of Architects (SAFA) presented the Finlandia Prize for Architecture for the 12th time. The prize shortlist was drawn up by a pre-selection jury appointed each year by SAFA.

The winner was picked by Archbishop Tapio Luoma. Familiarising himself with the shortlistees was a fascinating and fulfilling experience, he said.

Tapio Luoma has served as the Archbishop of Finland’s Evangelical Lutheran Church since 2018. During his tenure, he has advocated for people living in poverty and highlighted their right to dignity and respect at a time of welfare reforms and other public spending cuts.

The recipient of the Finlandia Prize for Architecture is chosen each year by an influential public figure who is a recognised expert in an area other than architecture.

The four finalists were chosen through an open call. Except for the Finlandia Hall refurbishment, all the shortlisted candidates this year are new build properties.

This year’s pre-selection jury comprised Professor Matti Sanaksenaho (Chair) and Professor Panu Savolainen alongside architects Miia-Liina Tommila and Kirsi Korhonen. The secretariat was provided by Paula Huotelin.
