Sigge Architects is an architects’ office in Turku, founded in 1956. We produce high-quality and professional design services in all sections of architecture. There are a total of 78 architects and interior designers working in our company. Our long-term activities have given us confidence and credibility, as well as an extensive clientele. Our clients include the Finnish State, cities and towns, municipalities, communities, industry, banks and insurance companies, trade, various institutions and private developers. Amongst the most significant assignments, so far, are the Embassy of Finland in Berlin, Arken – which is the Faculty of Arts, Psychology and Theology of Åbo Akademi University – and an extension for the Burj Al Arab Hotel in Dubai. Our assignments range from small tasks to extensive design projects. The 3D and data modelling is part of our design process, and we take sustainable development into account. We already have achieved Leed Platinum certification, and we have observed the bluegreen factors, as well as the use of geothermal heat and solar panels.
