The future of housing on display at Hartaanselkä shore

The Housing Fair is an annual major event that showcases the latest trends in housing, construction, and interior design. The first Housing Fair was held in 1970 in Tuusula, and since then, the event has toured various parts of Finland, highlighting innovative solutions for home builders and residents.

In Oulu, the 2025 Housing Fair will take place at Hartaanselkä Shore, where modern urban living meets a nature-inspired environment. The area will feature a diverse range of single-family homes, urban terraced houses, and mini detached houses, with designs emphasizing sustainability, community, and eco-friendliness.

At the heart of the area will be a unique pedestrian bridge that will connect the shores of Hartaanselkä, becoming a permanent part of Oulu’s cityscape.

The Housing Fair attracts tens of thousands of visitors each year, and in Oulu, the event is expected to draw up to 100,000 guests.
