COLONY SIGNS 1,400 SQM GREEN LEASE AGREEMENT UNTIL 2032 WITH ASUNTOSÄÄTIÖ
Colony acquired the wooden headquarter of Asuntosäätiö, the fourth largest owner of residential real estate in Finland from Schroders in October 2021. A friendly and open dialogue has now resulted in a lease extension until 2032.
“We are pleased that Asuntosäätiö, the original developer of Tapiola, shares our green values and appreciates the wooden architecture of Pekka Helin. Asuntosäätiö is active in the development of Tapiola and we are delighted that their premises reflect the original values of Tapiola, the first Garden city in Finland. During the process we have learned that the name of the area, Tapiola is a result of a competition organized by Asuntosäätiö.” says Stefan Gattberg, founder and partner at Altaal and chairman of Colony
The Tapiola building is a highly modern wooden building centered around wellbeing where natural light and aesthetics plays a vital role. Tapiola Center and metroline is within walking distance. The asset will serve as a flexible and environmentally responsible location for many of our members in the future. Today, Colony has a 100% green certified office portfolio in the Helsinki Metropolitan Area.
“We strongly believe in our green hybrid concept. We want to offer premises for wellbeing and an active lifestyle but also efficiency and comfort for fulfilling the demands of the modern worklife. After thorough discussions with a high number of successful companies, work-life balance seems to be the key to success” says Leo Suokannas, director at Avant Capital Partners
Colony is a company founded and managed by Altaal and co-managed together with Avant Capital Partners in Helsinki with the vision to create a green hybrid office company. Today, the portfolio consists of four locations in established office hubs across Helsinki comprising approx. 100,000 sqm.
