The design for the New Estonian Academy of Arts is a confident urban contribution, adding numerous values to the more business orientated surrounding space by transporting and emphasizing the importance of art into society.

The design refers to the urban guidelines as well it respects the narrow height limitations of the design competition brief. Most parts of the ground floor are open to public, pavements are traversing the site and therefore integrating external spaces into the building.
The public space in front of the “entrance crystal” serves as an entrance plaza for the New Estonian Academy of Arts. The roof acts as a public porch and marks the main entrance of the building.
