A F K S ARCHITECTS FRONDELIUS + KEPPO + SALMENPERÄ PORTFOLIO
Architects The office was established in1998 by Jari Frondelius and Jaakko Keppo, after winning the architectural competition of Korso church and parish center. Today there is three partners in the office: Jari Frondelius; Jaakko Keppo and Juha Salmenperä. All together the office employs nine professionals. Our office has experience on a broad range of design tasks. Design commissions range from urban planning to small scale detailing. The emphasis in our work has been on designing public buildings. We seek architectural vision which originates from the particular features found in every design task and its environment. Thus we attempt to create places that are meaningful, that reach the emotional level. This we believe to be the mission of architecture. However we feel the best architecture become complete only after the inhabitants have moved in and brought the building alive.
