About this document
Tapiola: Finland by Prachi Deshpande-Khare is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Tapiola, Finland was constructed in the 1950s-1960s as a garden city following the principles of the Garden City movement. It was designed with a focus on integrating housing within green spaces and parks. The planners aimed to create a self-sufficient satellite town to Helsinki with homes and services to support a healthy lifestyle for residents. While the population grew larger than originally planned, Tapiola has maintained its green and garden character even after six decades.
