LIVING IN WATERHOOD The Väike-Õismäe circle-city

The main character of the existing neighbourhood is the concentric plan with outer and inner rings. The well-balanced organisation of the public spaces and the pond in the center also embraced the concept of a circle city. However, this structure with old housing blocks is lack of characteristics - with a limited choice of different apartments types. The layout and surrounding of the mass-produced blocks do not fit the requirements of contemporary living environment. Existing structure = Circle city + Outer ring + Inner ring + Orientation towers Problems = lack of characteristics + lack of parking lots + a lot of obstruction in between the central pond and park to the housing blocks + mass-produced housing blocks without relation to human scale

What is the heritage of Soviet socialism ?

>>> Heritage of community philosophy : the concept of an ideal community where people mutually live and support each other >>> Heritage of urbanism : the circle city with car-free zone for the inner residents

RECYCLING SOCIALISM??? >>> RECYCLE URBAN STRUCTURE WITH THE EXISTING RHYTHM OF THE TOWERS >>> BREAK DOWN THE BARRIER FROM HOUSING TO THE WATER LANDSCAPE >>> RECYCLE THE COMMUNITY SHARING NETWORK >>> EMBRACE THE WATER LANDSCAPE + MIXED FUNCTIONAL AREAS to activate existing residents and also attract the newcomers >>> PHASING DEVELOPMENT

How to reinterpret Soviet Modernism in Tallinn?

>>> Reimage the new Väike-Õismäe as a green and sharing community >>> Turn back to microhousing lifestyle for better related neighbourhood with inner courtyard as traditional wooden houses in Estonia and Finland. >>> Improve the concept of car -free zone

>>> REMAINING ONE APARTMENT BLOCK WITH ITEMS FROM SOVIET LIFESTYLE AS A COLLECTIVE MEMORY POINT FOR YOUNG GENERATION

REGIONAL RELATION Väike-Oismäe located in a good connection to the city center “ one can reach downtown by trolley-bus in 30 minutes, by car and express bus in 20 minutes,and by bicycle in 45 minutes.” BEDTIME SUBURB

POTENTIAL DEVELOPMENT On the North : a large zone of centres for retail and household services. On the South - West : the connection with lake Haku and public bus network O the South: the pure residential area On the North - East : the hospital

There are also several sites important from the standpoint of the entire city that are located in the sub-district’s near vicinity: the Tallinn Zoo, the Rocca al Mare Open-Air Museum, the Kakumäe and Lake Harku swimming beaches, and a large zone of centres for retail, household services, culture, sports, and leisure, where a concert- and athletic centre, an ice rink, a tennis hall, as well as a large shopping centre have been erected.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> We develop the potential mixed commercial area along the slow traffic route - which can be a promenade for future commercial developments Micro housing on the south The new canal open to the first impression point connecting the lake Harku beaches with Väike-Õismäe A Soviet lifestyle museum - as a new attraction point to encourage outsiders to the Open Air Museum and lake Harku.
