Description:

A modernist modular high school that can be used in a 70° corner. Please read the description.

Background

The modernist building designed by Timo Penttilä and Kari Virta was opened in 1960. Sampola was originally an adult education centre. Nowadays the building complex includes a high school in addition to adult education facilities. The name Sampola is a reference to Sampo, a magical artifact that brings riches and good fortune to its holder in Finnish mythology.

Gameplay

This asset includes 5 buildings. All buildings are available in education tab.

  • Auditorium fits to 70° corner (5×15 u): high school for 800 students.
  • A-building (12×2 u): high school for 1200 students.
  • B-building (11×4 u): high school for 500 students.
  • C-building (8×3 u): high school for 400 students.
  • D-building (8×3 u): elementary school for 400 students.

You can use the buildings separately. If you want the default complex, you have to build it piece-by piece and you will need an anarchy mod. See the slideshow for instructions how to build road access and place the buildings.

The building costs vary depending on the number of students.
