Who We Are

We are specialized in architectural design of multipurpose arenas and sports facilities. Our other design products are public buildings, business facilities and residential buildings.

Our motto  – DESIGNED FOR DECADES OF SUCCESS

Our design principles include four core elements: Functionality, sustainability, profitability and timeless elegance.

HARC was founded and is lead by Else Kettunen, architect.

Else has made a significant career in designing multi-functional arenas, business facilities, apartment houses and private homes. Our team has outstanding experience in creating a design that is not just beautiful, but functional to the core. We believe in long life-cycles and efficient usage of the buildings we design.

HARC works in close cooperation with a number of architects and consortiums to ensure full service range to our customers all over the world. In our 20+ years of operations we have had the privilege to design arenas and arena environments in Russia, Europe and Finland, where we proudly stand behind the two-decade old Helsinki Arena.

I want my customer to create a profit from the arena we design for them, while creating unforgettable experiences to the customers using the arenas. – Else Kettunen.
