Helsinki Allies and Morrison Urban Practitioners (AMUP) has taken joint top prize in an international ideas competition for Helsinki's South Harbour. The London-based studio - an alliance of Urban Practitioners and Allies and Morrison formed in May 2011 - is among four practices sharing the prize. Others in the winning quartet were Finland firms Ilkka Sviird and APRT, and Rotterdam's Maxwan Architects + Urbanists. The contest sought visions for the major passenger terminal and was launched last year as part of the World Design Capital Helsinki 2012 programme.
