From the architect. The chocolate company Fazer is one of the best known Finnish brands with a strong heritage. In short, the new visitor center transforms the existing candy factory area into a destination for visitors. 
Site Plan

The new visitor center is a pavilion which becomes the architectonic signature of the area. It is the first object one sees as approaching Fazer village. The entrance front of the whole area will be transformed by means of landscaping. The large, yet necessary, parking areas will be planted with cherry trees and the main entrance to the visitor center will be guided through a garden of different grains. The raw materials of Fazer products will be strongly present.
