Tampere Psychiatric Clinic, Finland
C.F. MØLLER ARCHITECTS BRING HEALING ARCHITECTURE TO FINLAND
C.F. Møller Architects are behind the proposal for a new psychiatric clinic in Finland that is based on strong international healthcare experience and the concept of Healing Architecture also known as evidence-based architecture.
The concept of evidence-based architecture combined with C.F. Møller Architects’ Scandinavian roots, meaning a strong focus on daylight and closeness to nature, is the core of our healthcare expertise. This is now brought to a new psychiatric clinic at Tampere University Hospital, a building to support patients’ healing process and the staff’s work environment – a beneficial environment for the good of all.
Tampere Psychiatric Clinic Building
“We are very happy that Tampere University Hospital wants to bring our international healthcare experience to Finland with the ambition of designing a clinic focusing on wellbeing for both staff and patients. We will combine our experience from countries such as Germany, Denmark, Great Britain, Sweden and Norway with inspiration from Finnish heritage to design a modern and well-functioning clinic for the Tampere University Hospital, says Mårten Leringe, Partner and Architect at C.F. Møller Architects who is collaboration with Finnish Aihio Arkkitehdit Oy on this project.
The new clinic in Tampere
The psychiatric clinic comprises a self-contained extension to Tampere University Hospital, located on the outer edge of the hospital area and adjacent to a surrounding nature/outdoor area. The link with the hospital’s infrastructure creates organisational and structural advantages, whilst the secluded location gives the building its own identity and privacy. The latter features, the contact with nature and the possibility of outdoor environments are a great advantage in psychiatric care.
Supporting the healing process
The facility features a flexible structural concept that supports patients’ healing process and the staff’s work environment. The structure creates a number of differing environments, featuring private, social and public spaces – both indoor and outdoor – to meet psychiatric patients’ need, willingness and ability to be part of everyday life and adapt to life in the outside world.
Together, three U-shaped care buildings facing the surrounding natural environment and an administration and activities building arranged in a ring form an enclosed shared courtyard. Activities, visits and socialising centre on and utilise the inner courtyard’s safe and secluded environment.
The care buildings are organised in such a way that departments are in pairs, with a shared core for staff and functional purposes, creating optimum flexibility and efficiency whilst providing a good overview and security within the department. The circular structure and the vertical nodes within the volume of each building ensure short distances and good communication throughout the facility.
Finnish inspiration
The building is inspired by the existing clinic in Pitkäniemi that features natural garden like environment and Tampere’s industrial heritage that features bricks and wood and the surrounding nature. Both are considered supportive for the healing process. The combination of these elements creates a modern, locally rooted ambiance with a focus on both patients and staff – a healing environment for the good of all.
The clinic provides 180 beds for various psychiatrical healthcare units such as: emergency unit, psychosis unit, crisis unit, outpatient clinic, somatopsychiatric unit, neuropsychiatry unit, mood disorder unit, neuromodulation unit, substance abuse unit and psychosis + forensic psychiatry unit. The size of the project is 20.000 m² and C.F. Møller Architects design it in collaboration with Finnish Aihio Arkkitehdit Oy.
Next step in the process is to win planning approval from the Ministry of Health in Finland. This is expected to happen during the summer 2019.

New Partner and CEO at C.F. Møller Architects
C.F. Møller’s current COO, lawyer Lone Bendorff, joins the partnership and is also appointed new CEO at C.F. Møller Architects.
For the past five years, the present CEO, architect and partner Klaus Toustrup, has served as CEO concurrently with the development of major projects. During this period, there was a need to focus on C.F. Møller’s business development and the professionalisation of the entire organisation. Klaus Toustrup now feels that the time has come to pass on the baton and focus more on developing architecture through customer relations and the acquisition of new projects.

“It’s with great pleasure that we now present Lone Bendorff as partner and CEO at C.F. Møller Architects. With Lone we benefit from an international vision and management experience that is not so common in the world of architecture. In view of Lone’s strong and pleasant personality and her understanding of the architectural profession and the construction industry, it’s a natural step and a great pleasure to make this appointment,” says Chairman of the Board Klavs Hyttel.
Klaus Toustrup continues on C.F. Møller’s Executive Board after passing the role of CEO over to Lone Bendorff.
“It is with pleasure and confidence that I pass on the baton to Lone. She has long been a significant part of our management team and now has full focus on the further development of C.F. Møller’s position and potential. Lone’s international experience from her time at Vestas, and her flair for decoding and accentuating C.F. Møller’s unique culture and values, make her a strong managerial and forward-looking focal point for the entire C.F. Møller Group in the future,” says Klaus Toustrup.
Lone Bendorff came to C.F. Møller Architects in 2015 from a position as Senior Vice President of Legal & Risk Management at Vestas and joined the Executive Board in August 2017 as COO, and she expresses great joy and humility at her appointment as CEO.
“I’m looking forward to the new role, and even though I feel awe and respect, I also consider myself to be well-prepared for the task. I have felt at home at C.F. Møller from the very first day, and the key principles of credibility, accountability and strong professionalism provide a strong base and important cohesion. I’ve also appreciated getting to know both the construction industry and the people in it during the past three years.
Architects are part of a wide range of formal and informal partnerships to achieve both small and large projects. Both human relations and an understanding of the interests and economic conditions of all parties must be considered, and I think I have a very good understanding of this specific interaction, which we share with the rest of the construction industry,” says Lone Bendorff.
Lone Bendorff took her law degrees from Aarhus University and Kings College, London. Before C.F. Møller Architects and Vestas, she was an attorney at Gorrissen Federspiel from 1998 to 2005.
The Executive Board now comprises CEO Lone Bendorff, Chairman of the Board Klavs Hyttel, CFO Birgit Møller and Partner Klaus Toustrup.
The group of partners consists of the architects Klaus Toustrup, Klavs Hyttel, Michael Kruse, Julian Weyer, Mads Mandrup Hansen, Lone Wiggers, Mårten Leringe and Christian Dahle, and lawyer Lone Bendorff
There are seven associate partners, who are the architects Jonas Toft Lehmann, Rune Bjerno Nielsen, Lasse Vilstrup Palm, Ola Jonsson, Rolf Nielsen, Thue Borgen Hasløv and Franz C.A. Ødum.
