Helsinki Museum of Architecture and Design
Competition to design an innovative world-class museum of Architecture and Design in Finland's capital.
This competition, conducted in partnership with the City of Helsinki and the Finnish Association of Architects (SAFA), seeks to procure a design for a distinctive museum building that will celebrate the rich heritage and innovative spirit of Finnish and Nordic design and architecture on a global scale. The location is at a waterside location to the west of the South Harbour.
The building is to be a place that is a window into the world of design - bringing beautiful architecture, urban planning, creativity, environmental innovation, digital design, fashion and food together under one roof to create a visitor experience unlike any other design or architecture museum in the world.
