Our built environment requires bold green transition innovations. Our human well-being needs a stronger and better connection with nature. Climate change needs new solutions such as carbon sinks to counteract it. We have taken up these challenges and decided to make building facades alive - literally.
Our goal is to develop Arctic Bio Facade into a living and commercialized facade material based on biophilic thinking. This requires multidisciplinary cooperation between different experts from different fields.
For us, biophilia is a choice of value. Our aim is to increase well-being and bring the vital nature connection back to cold and clinical urban environments.
We are developing a completely
new, living and organic facade
material. We will make it ready
to use - from product to
commercializing
We are looking for partners for the first phase, where we create a path from product development to commercial deployment.
Please feel free to contact us and tell us how you could contribute in joining our ecosystem.
The importance of nature and connection to nature for well-being is emphasized in a highly urbanized world
For a more sustainable construction it requires a overall biophilic understanding from planning, architecture to materials.
We develop technically and ecologically revolutionary living facades that also act as carbon sinks
At Brande, our mission is to change the world and create a shared, positively impacting legacy of values.

Arctic Bio Facade's team includes Jari Palonen, CEO of Brande, whose solid experience in creating inspiring strategies and business concepts has become familiar to many. Sami Kuusisto, brand development and conceptualization, knows that conceptualization is an art form that requires open-minded thinking and an understanding of the surprising connections between different things. Carita Ahonen is a biophilic design expert LFA, biophilic interior architect SIO/SI/AMK and designer AMK, whose idea and dream the project is based on. A better future is built with an open mind, courage, empathy and cooperation and the ability to question norms.
