Jõesuu 6 office building

White dynamic form flowing through the pine forest.

The building is located in the tranquil district of Pirita, Tallinn, stands at the intersection of nature and modern design, beautifully nestled between the serene seaside and a lush pine forest. The building’s placement at this unique natural site offers panoramic views of the Baltic Sea, while being embraced by the tall, slender pines that characterize the area. 

The dynamic form of the building evokes the imagery of a sleek yacht, appearing as though it is gently wandering along the shore. The white façade further enhances this nautical metaphor, reminiscent of the smooth, polished hull of a luxury vessel cutting through the waves. 

The architecture is characterized by clean lines and sweeping curves, creating a sense of movement and fluidity in the overall form. Large windows are strategically placed to maximize natural light and provide unobstructed views of the sea and the forest, blurring the boundaries between indoor and outdoor spaces. The contrast between the pristine white façade and the deep greens of the pine forest creates a striking visual balance, making the building stand out while still respecting the natural beauty of its setting.
