Hankkijan talo, Office building in Kamppi, Finland
The four-story Hankkijan talo features dark purple brick facades and dull green roofing tiles at the intersection of Salomonkatu and Arkadiankatu streets.
Built in 1913 by car dealer Sergei Nikolajeff, the building initially served as an automobile palace before becoming the headquarters of Hankkija cooperative in 1919.
The structure introduced Finland's first concrete beam and flooring system, marking an advancement in the country's construction methods during the early 20th century.
The building contains multiple floors dedicated to different functions, from storage areas and maintenance facilities to offices and reception spaces.
The original structure included two tennis courts and a public American bowling alley in the attic, with spectator balconies separating the sports facilities.
