恭喜巴黎建築師事務所Moreau Kusunoki在歷經了一年的競圖比賽中獲得評審團肯定拿下了位於芬蘭赫爾辛基的古根漢美術館競圖。事務所稱為”Art in the City”的提案設計理念如同評審團主席Mark Wigley所說：「新博物館集合了評審心目中各項優點，且展館將與周遭水岸地區、公園及都會區形成獨特的對話，並讓人們能隨意穿梭於這些區域之中，並在未來能吸引更多相關博物館的成立。」

古根漢基金會表示，可想像Moreau Kusunoki事務所在館內內部街道中一連串連續式的展館設計將吸引遊客一同參與館內的藝術活動。九個低高度，由經過燒黑程序的當地木材及玻璃元素包覆的量體創造出一種自然環境氛圍的設計，而一座燈塔式設計的量體經由新的行人橋與一旁的天文臺公園連結，並形成了沿著赫爾辛基南邊碼頭的海濱人行道。不僅如此，評審團發現新古根漢美術館設計中更隱含了對當地原環境的尊重，以及無分級感的分散又連續的展覽區呈現方式，讓藝術與社會活動能夠適當地融合在一起。

古根漢基金會總監Richard Armstrong表示，Moreau Kusunoki事務所在全球將近2,000位設計師對於赫爾辛基南邊碼頭的未來想像與新古根漢博物館的可能性中，將建築的智慧用簡潔設計的方式表達的獨特。在競圖比賽中，為了能讓參與設計的作品公佈在網路上，基金會也首次將參加者設計的資訊公開在網路。雖然比賽已結束，但基金會相信這將有助於在建築界引發更多的討論與研究，或許這也只是另一種型式的開始。

二位設計師也在相關的訪談中表示，「非常感謝古根漢基金會及赫爾辛基市對於此競圖中給於設計師們大膽開放想像的空間，提供了一次深具挑戰的比賽，這對設計師來說也是一次展現信心的機會。而事務所也非常榮幸地能在1,715件作品中脫穎而出，接下來則是與古根漢基金會、赫爾辛基市市民以及建築與藝術的熱愛者一同接受興建新古根漢美術館過程中的挑戰。」

在第一次聽過競圖簡報後，Moreau Kusunoki事務所便有了將新古根漢博物館變成透明的想像，並如何開創出多孔性的感覺讓遊客能自由地穿梭在博物館與周遭的環境中，讓遊客產生獨特的觀賞體驗。透明與開放，以及位於各量體間的海濱人行道是設計概念中重要的元素，而博物館周圍林立的商店及市場，也讓事務所想像著將有許多的互動活動發生。因此，一樓處的設計將會是與都會紋理互動設計的重點。另外就是因基地鄰近海邊，也需避免有地下室的設計。

Moreau Kusunoki, based in Paris, have been announced as the winners of the Guggenheim Helsinki competition following a year of shortlisting, refining and deliberation. Their proposal—entitled Art in the City—"sums up the qualities the jury admired in the design" noted Mark Wigley, chair of the jury. He continued: "the waterfront, park, and nearby urban area all have a dialogue with the loose cluster of pavilions, with people and activities flowing between them. The design is imbued with a sense of community and animation that matches the ambitions of the brief to honor both the people of Finland and the creation of a more responsive museum of the future."

The announcement was made this morning in Helsinki by Richard Armstrong, Director of the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum and Foundation. Also present was Professor Mark Wigley, chair of the jury and Dean Emeritus of Columbia GSAPP, Jussi Pajunen, Mayor of Helsinki, Ari Lahti, chairman of the Guggenheim Helsinki Supporting Foundation, and the architect team.

According to the Guggenheim Foundation, Moreau Kusunoki's design "invites visitors to engage with museum artwork and programs across a gathering of linked pavilions and plazas organized around an interior street. Clad in locally sourced charred timber and glass, the environmentally sensitive building would comprise nine low-lying volumes and one lighthouse-like tower, connected to the nearby Observatory Park by a new pedestrian footbridge and served by a promenade along Helsinki’s South Harbour." Furthermore, "the jury found the design deeply respectful of the site and setting, creating a fragmented, non-hierarchical campus of linked pavilions where art and society could meet and intermingle."

Richard Armstrong, Director of the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum and Foundation, said: "rarely has such a concentration of architectural intelligence been directed at a single design challenge. Nearly two thousand designers from around the world turned their thoughts to the future of Helsinki’s South Harbour and the possibilities of a museum for the twenty-first century. By making these competition entries available online, we also have contributed an unprecedented volume of design information that is now freely available for study and use. For this reason, while the design competition has now ended, we are confident that its contribution to architectural discourse and the public imagination has only just begun."

Thanks to the bold vision of the Solomon R. Guggenheim Foundation and the City of Helsinki, the international open competition process offered a unique challenge for practices around the world to partake in this exceptional project. Such events represent great hope for architects. We are delighted and honored to have been selected from among 1,715 entries. We are happy to share this victory with all the people we work with: our staff, our partners, and our clients. This great adventure brought us energy, joy, and dreams. The adventure now continues with the Solomon R. Guggenheim Foundation, the people of Helsinki, and lovers of architecture and art."

The first round of the open competition held in June 2014 generated 1,715 anonymous entires submitted from 77 countries. In December of 2014 the jury revealed a shortlist of six designs, each selected for their potential "in engaging with the site on Helsinki’s South Harbour, contributing to the urban context, advancing sustainable architecture and challenging, or expanding on, conventional museum practice." Each of these proposals were then developed as finalists. In keeping with European Union and Finnish procurement rules, the identities of the firms responsible were announced but not matched to the submissions. Participating practices included:
•AGPS Architecture (Zurich, Switzerland and Los Angeles, USA)
•Asif Khan (London, UK)
•Fake Industries Architectural Agonism (Cristina Goberna, Urtzi Grau) , Jorge Lopez Conde, Carmen Blanco, Alvaro Carrillo (New York, USA; Barcelona, Spain; and Sydney, Australia)
•Haas Cook Zemmrich STUDIO2050 (Stuttgart, Germany)
•Moreau Kusunoki Architectes (Paris, France)
•SMAR Architecture Studio (Madrid, Spain and Western Australia)
Moreau Kusunoki will receive a cash award of €100,000 (approximately $109,000), while an award of €55,000 (approximately $60,000) will be given to each of the five finalist teams.

The City of Helsinki and the State of Finland will determine whether to proceed with developing a Guggenheim Helsinki. If the project moves forward, funding will come from public and private sources, including the non-profit Guggenheim Helsinki Supporting Foundation.
