The Aalto University Degree Programmes in Environmental Art and Landscape Architecture jointly launched a student challenge. The aim of the competition was to design and create a visually high-quality, open-minded and feasible campus garden for the area between Otakaari and Rakentajanaukio square on the Otaniemi campus.
