Based on the winning entry of the invited competition, the building is situated on a shore meadow beside lake Kiurujärvi. The oblong mass of the nursing home and day centre complex with its fishbone-shape articulation is functionally divided into four subvisions: the unit of independent service flats closest to the village, the day centre serving both residents and non-residents; a home help services and general maintenance section situated between these two; and the elderly home proper consisting of housing modules.
