The undeniably gorgeous premises adapt to your needs amid a charming milieu in an unbeatable location. The impressive Wuorio House building gives upcoming success stories the stage they deserve.
The almost 200 year-old listed building is situated close to services and in the middle of both the liveliest and most historic part of Helsinki.
The valued property has been thoroughly renovated, contains top-of-the-range building technology, and provides light and stylish premises for demanding tastes.
Unioninkatu is situated in the liveliest part of Helsinki’s finance and business district, intersecting Aleksanterinkatu and Esplanadi. Wuorio House is surrounded by the finest restaurants in the city and commercial services.
Originally built for residential purposes, the house truly came to life after modernisations by decorative painter Salomo Wuorio and architect Herman Gesellius. After a renovation completed in 1913, the building became known as the “Wuorio business palace”. The building housed Salomo Wuorio’s own wallpaper and carpet shop for almost 70 years. From the 1930s, the lower floor of the business palace was also home to The English Tearoom, which was known for its English elegance.
Wuorio House has been exceptionally flexible over the years; it has been adapted several times to suit the period and needs of its users. The building will soon take on its most recent iteration, as its interior is undergoing a modernisation into business and office premises which respect the building’s history.
