Assistant Professor, History of Architecture an Architectural Conservation

Department of Architecture (www)
ProfileContactPublications

Person profile

My research interests include medieval churches, historical GIS, architecture and urban space from seventeenth- to ninteenth-centuries. I'm leading the project (from 1/2020) Medieval timber structures in Finland: The process of construction and structural innovations of the roof structures in medieval stone churches funded by Finnish Cultural Foundation. My previous research project was about the experiences on the transformation of public lighting in the nineteenth-century cities of Finland. In addition, my research is closely linked to today's world and the roles of architectural conservation and history of architecture in the society.

Person profile

Työskentelen useiden tutkimusteemojen parissa, ja tällä hetkellä kiinnostukseni kohteena ovat erityisesti keskiaikaiset kivikirkot, uuden ajan alun kaupunkihistoria, tekstien ja materiaalisen kulttuurin suhde, historiallinen paikkatieto ja aistien historia. Vuoden 2020 alusta johdan hanketta Keskiajan puurakenusperintö Suomessa: kivikirkkojen kattorakenteet, rakennusprosessi ja rakentamisen innovaatiot, jolle Suomen kulttuurirahasto on myöntänyt rahoituksen alkuvuodesta 2019. Näiden teemojen ohella tutkin ja kartoitan ulottuvuuksia, joissa arkkitehtuurin historia on läsnä tämän päivän keskusteluissa, kuten kestävän rakentamisen ja korjaamisen yhteiskunnallisia ulottuvuuksia.

Background

I graduated from the Helsinki University of Technology in 2009 (MSc in Architecture) and from the University of Turku in 2013 (MA in History). I defended my doctoral thesis at the University of Turku in 2017. My PhD thesis (2017) was about the concepts and practices of public and private space in eighteenth-century Turku, and my previous publications include articles and a monograph about eighteenth-century residential architecture and lived space, social history of the lower urban classes, historical archaeology of Vyborg cathedral, insurance history and the concepts of object and text in archaeology. Besides my research activities I have published one children's book and made several scholarly and non-scholarly graphic design projects and illustrations for museums and book publishers.

Background

Valmistuin arkitehdiksi Teknillisestä korkeakoulusta vuonna 2009 ja Filosofian maisteriksi Turun yliopistosta vuonna 2013. Väittelin Turun yliopiston Suomen historian oppiaineesta vuonna 2017 julkisen ja yksityisen tilan historiallista muotoutumista käsitelleellä väitöskirjalla. Väitöksen jälkeen olen tutkimuksen ohella keskittynyt myös laajemmalle yleisöille suunnattuun työhön. Aiemmin olen työskennellyt rakennusinventoijana (2004-2005), suunnittelevana arkkitehtina (2006-2008), restaurointi- ja museohankkeissa sekä rakennusarkeologisissa projekteissa (2010-2014), tutkijana ja opettajana Turun yliopistossa ja Åbo Akademissa (2014-2019) ja yliopistonlehtorina Turun yliopistossa (2019-2020).
