Master plan of your site
Any design in Finland begins with a plan of arrangement of the land plot, i.e., its Master Plan. The Master Plan is a long-term plan of building area, on which basis all other projects will be compiled. The Master Plan includes a comprehensive solution of issues of planning and town and country planning, the placement of buildings, communications, utilities, systems of economic and consumer services.
For the design of the Master Plan, the architect of Lumi Polar must obtain the following initial data about the site:
- Geodetic information: site plan, map, with marked the border area, parts of the world, topography, measurements of heights, steep slopes, ledges, information on existing and retained buildings.
- Exposition of the site: Vegetation - deciduous and coniferous trees, natural stones and boulders, the location of water bodies surrounding the road access to the site locations, etc.
- Information about adjacent neighboring territories, as well as the situation with their buildings, which gives information on what are assumed to be built in the future.
- Possible restrictions ground water, power lines, etc.
