Arkkitehti Carl Ludvig Engel, Keisari Aleksanteri I Ja Sotaväenpäällikön Talon Pääjulkisivu Helsingin Esplanadilla
Jarkko Sinisalo Arkkitehti Carl Ludvig Engel, keisari Aleksanteri I ja sotaväenpäällikön talon pääjulkisivu Helsingin Esplanadilla Kaksikerroksinen kulmatalo osoitteessa Eteläesplanadi 6 - Fabianinkatu 25, nykyinen Valtioneuvoston juhlahuoneisto ("Smolna''), oli alun perin Suo- men sotaväen ylitarkastajan, sotaväenpäällikön, virkatalo. 1 (Kuva 1.) Se oli yksi niistä varhaisen pääkaupungin julkisista rakennuksista, joiden suun- nittelusta Carl Ludvig Engel huolehti Johan Albrecht Ehrenströmin joh- taman Helsingin uudelleenrakennuskomitean arkkitehtina (1816-1824). Engelin toiminnasta virkatalon suunnittelijana erottuu menettely, jota ei ta- vata muista uudelleenrakennuskomitean projekteista ja joka oli ylipäätään erittäin harvinainen arkkitehdin suunnittelutuotannossa. Hän nimittäin sisällytti lopulliseen, keisarille esiteltyyn suunnitelmaan kaksi vaihtoehtoa pääfasadiksi. Vaihtoehtoiset fasadipiirustukset ovat molemmat nyttemmin tulleet tutkimuksen ulottuville, toinen vuonna 1987 ja toinen 2006. Eräs yl- lättävä havainto vuonna 1987 oli, että nykyinen pääfasadi, jonka tiedetään säilyneen likipitäen alkuperäisellään, ei kaikin kohdin seurannutkaan vah- vistettua suunnitelmaa. Tässä artikkelissa keskityn käsittelemään pääfasa- din suunnittelua ja mahdollisia motiiveja vaihtoehtoisten fasadipiirustusten laatimiselle. Kuitenkin taustaksi käyn ensin läpi mm. aiemmin hyödyntä- mättä jääneiden kirjallisten lähteiden varassa virkatalon rakennushankkeen perustavia tapahtumia. Näin sitä suuremmalla syyllä, sillä hankkeen eräät piirteet viittaavat

Helsinki: an Overview
Helsinki: An Overview Helsinki, the largest city in Finland, is the nation’s capital and its administrative, economic, scientific and cultural center. The metropolitan area covers 0.2 percent of Finland’s land area, yet 19 percent of the country’s population lives there, generating 30 percent of the nation’s total output. Demographics Helsinki is growing more international at a fast pace. Today 10 percent of Helsinki residents are foreign- born, and the frequency is higher among younger age groups. The proportion of foreign-born residents is expected to rise to 20-25 percent by 2025. Economy Finland’s economy is among the most competitive in the world, according to the World Economic Forum. Helsinki is the engine of Finland’s growth and is the country’s main economic and logistical center. Its industrial structure is diversified, but services and high-tech industries account for a large proportion of output. As the economic weight of Northern Europe shifts eastward, Helsinki is emerging as a regional hub of business and commerce. Located at the heart of the fast-growing Baltic Sea region, 315 miles due east of Stockholm, Helsinki serves as a gateway between East and West. Several daily flights and new high- speed trains link Helsinki to St. Petersburg, and extensive intercontinental flight connections make Helsinki a major hub for the megacities of East Asia, serving 13 million travelers in 2010. Annually, some 9 million ferry passengers travel through the port of Helsinki. Quality of Life Helsinki ranks second among European cities in The Economist Intelligence Unit’s Global Liveability Report (2010).

Architecture in Kvarken
ARCHITECT URE I N K V A R K E N – TWO COUNTRIES - A WORLD OF CONTRAST Get to know the modern cities as well as the old wooden towns in Kvarken. During an architecture tour, you will get to know Kvarken from an architectural perspective, its history, as well as stories about people who lived and live along the coasts of the Gulf of Bothnia. Höga Kusten Umeå Vaasa Seinäjoki Kristinestad Pietarsaari/Jakobstad Kokkola Höga Kusten and Örnsköldsvik Örnsköldsvik, even called Ö-vik, is part of the High Coast and its fantastic nature. Naturum Höga Kusten - is designed by White Architects. Located in the shadow of the mighty Skuleberget. Naturum Höga kusten, is an attention- grabbing building inspired by the nature that surrounds it. Interesting geometric patterns and angular displacements give the building rich and varied expression. It is precisely the rough and anything but 90-degree feeling that characterizes nature on the High Coast. The High Coast is characterized by odd angles and variation in rhythm, scale and color. The glazed long side represents the ice. The inner concrete wall symbolizes the mountain. ArkNat – is a combination of architecture and nature. Architect students from all over Scandinavia were invited to create unique “art” that reminds of typical wind shelters in the nature. As result you will find nine fantastic creations, places to rest or to have a picknick, located along the 128 km long High coast Trail. Ting 1 – is residential building in Örnsköldsvik Ting 1 is designed by Gert Wingårdh, who was inspired by Bengt Lindström's art.

Genetic Variation, Big Data and Ageing
INFRAFRONTIER / IMPC Conference 2019 Genetic Variation, Big Data and Ageing June 3 to 5, 2019 | Helsinki #InfrafrontierConf #InfraConfHelsinki WELCOME Dear colleagues, After two productive meetings in Athens (2017) and Munich (2018), the joint conference of the INFRAFRONTIER research infrastructure and the International Mouse Phenotyping Consortium (IMPC) has successfully established itself as the global platform for scientific exchange between experts from basic research to clinical research in the biomedical field – with a focus on functional phenogenomics. Martin Hrabě de Angelis This summer, we welcome you to Helsinki, the beautiful capital of INFRAFRONTIER, Finland. The aim of the INFRAFRONTIER/IMPC Conference 2019 is to Scientific Director discuss three hot topics in modern biomedical research: Genetic Variation: Understanding the functional consequences of human genetic variation and its impact on genetic diseases is critically important. This task involves systematic mutagenesis in appropriate models emulating human genetic variation, together with comprehensive genotypic and phenotypic analysis. Big Data: The availability of vast amounts of genomic and pheno typic data in the IMPC and INFRAFRONTIER databases offers the po tential to transform the biomedical research landscape. To carefully collect, analyse and interpret these huge datasets will be essential Steve Brown IMPC, Scientific Chair for the progress of genomic medicine. Ageing: In a setting of rapidly ageing societies across Europe, Ame rica, and Asia, new findings into the genetics of ageing processes and agerelated disorders uncovered using animal models are pivo tal to not only extending life but also improving its quality. We are grateful to our colleagues at the University of Oulu, together with the Finnish Ministry of Education and Culture and the Acade my of Finland, for their kind support in organizing this conference.

TAMPEREEN YLIOPISTO Salla Elo KOTI HELSINGISSÄ, SYDÄN BERLIINISSÄ Saksalaissyntyisen Carl Ludvig Engelin sopeutuminen Suomeen ____________________________________ Suomen historian pro gradu –tutkielma Tampere 2007 Tampereen yliopisto Historiatieteen laitos ELO SALLA: Koti Helsingissä, sydän Berliinissä. Saksalaissyntyisen Carl Ludvig Engelin sopeutuminen Suomeen Pro gradu –tutkielma, s. 137 Suomen historia Toukokuu 2007 Johan Carl Ludvig Engel (1778–1840) syntyi ja kouluttautui arkkitehdiksi Berliinissä, Preussissa, josta hän vuonna 1808 työpulan vuoksi hakeutui töihin ulkomaille. Ensin hän toimi neljä vuotta Tallinnan kaupungin arkkitehtinä ja vuonna 1816 hänet kutsuttiin Suomeen Helsinkiin pääkaupungin uudelleenrakennustoimikunnan pääarkkitehdiksi. Vuodesta 1824 kuolemaansa vuoteen 1840 asti Engel palveli Suomen intendenttikonttorin (entinen Rakennushallitus, nykyään Senaatti-kiinteistöt) johtajana, intendenttinä. Tässä pro gradu -tutkielmassa keskityttiin arkkitehti Engelin yksityiseen puoleen. Hänet tunnetaan merkittävänä alansa vaikuttajana Suomen 1800-luvun rakennustaiteessa. Täten oli mielenkiintoista tietää, että millainen persoona Johan Carl Ludvig Engel oli ja mitä hänen ajanvietteisiinsä kuului. Kysymyksiin etsittiin vastauksia tarkastelemalla hänen perhetaustojaan, omaa perhettään, suhtautumista itseensä, muihin ja maailmaan sekä tutkimalla Engelin kotioloja Helsingissä, hänen ajanvietteitään ja ihmissuhteitaan. Engelin esimerkin kautta oli tarkoitus tarkastella yksilön ja yhteisön suhdetta. Erityisesti kiinnostavaa oli se,

Religion of Finnish People Eyes
Religion in Finnish high school students’ eyes The Holy Bible Not so many high school students have read The Holy Bible For example in the first class of Juankoski high school 3 out of 19 16- year old students have read The Holy Bible Church Religion appears in Finnish people’s lives in many ways. Finnish people go to church, some more than others, but usually at least once a year. Religion is a private matter to Finns. Although only a small minority of Finnish people are active members of church, the majority of Finnish people want to belong to church. Finland is one of the most Lutheran countries of the world; over 85 % of Finland’s population belongs to the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Finland 1 % of Finnish people belong to the other national church, the Orthodox Church 13 % of Finnish people don’t belong to any registered religious community The Church Architecture and Art The Church of Saint Henry, Nousiainen - built in about 1286-1290 The Church of Saint Henry, Nousiainen The sarcophagus of our Patron Saint Saint Olof’s church in Tyrvää *built in about the 1450’s Saint Olof’s church, Jomala in Åland * built in about 1260-1280 * the present exterior dates back to the 1800’s Turku Cathedral * built in various phases, the first one in the late 13th century * the Cathedral was repaired and extented in the 14th and 15th centuries Saint John’s Church, Helsinki - designed in the Neo-Gothic style * built in 1891 Helsinki Cathedral * architect Carl Ludvig Engel (1778-1840) * built in 1826 The Church in Haapavesi represents modern

LUCI Annual General Meeting Helsinki Finland 23rd to 27th September 2015 Programme LUCI Annual General Meeting rd th Helsinki Finland 23 to 27 September 2015 am pleased and delighted to welcome the LUCI Annual General I Meeting to Helsinki. You have chosen the optimal time to visit our city. Helsinki is expanding faster than ever before with the construction of completely new districts. For example, Kruunuvuorenranta, a residential community under development at the site of a former oil terminal, will be profiled as a neighbourhood of light. Outdoor lighting will be an important part of this process as the City of Helsinki aims to build sustainable, safe and pleasant EDITORIALS neighbourhoods, where people can enjoy both work and leisure. Our northern location makes the city ideal for innovative lighting schemes, following the long winter period. In new outdoor lighting projects, we highlight the importance of sustainability and energy efficiency. Consequently, the total energy consumption of outdoor lighting in Helsinki has decreased by 25% since 1997, while the number of lighting points has increased by 19%. I look forward to sharing experiences and best practices in this extremely interesting field and to welcoming you in Helsinki. Jussi Pajunen Mayor of Helsinki t’s a great pleasure to gather in Helsinki for the 2015 edition of Iour Annual General Meeting! Following the success of last year’s AGM in Dubrovnik (Croatia), the LUCI network brings together cities and professionals from all over the world to share ideas, experiences, and broaden their perspectives in the ever evolving field of lighting. With a focus on northern lights, LUCI members will have the exceptional opportunity to discover the many facets of outdoor lighting in Helsinki, a global and inspiring policy including the implementation of new lighting technologies based on the most recent research results, architectural lighting, light and art and festive lighting projects.
