Abstract

This paper analyzes the diversity of urban housing concepts in Finland. Our research
questions are: 1) what kind of urban housing concepts exist in Finland in 2017, 2)
what megatrends do the current concepts answer to, and 3) how has the variation
of housing concepts changed within the last ten years? Starting from mapping
84 actors in housing market, we distinguish 51 different concepts, most of which
have been developed since 2008. Based on the main objective of the concept we
divided the data into three themes: 1) new architectural housing solutions in the
Finnish context, 2) concepts answering to a particular phase of life or style of living,
and 3) concepts with an emphasis on economy or new kinds of financial solutions.
In the latter part of the paper, we reflect the impact of the concepts to the future
development of Finnish housing market.
