Design Forum Finland

Description:

• Finnish designers have steadily gained an increasingly good international reputation and are slowly nearing the fame Finnish architects enjoyed in the last century. The Helsinki School of Design seems to maintain high standards, annually giving forth new, talented blood. In Helsinki, the places to go and see the newest designs are the Museum of Industrial Art and Design Forum. The latter is situated in the city center, where Etelä-Esplanadi and Fabianinkatu meet, roughly across the street from Hotel Kämp. Design Forum exhibits include furniture, textiles and tableware as well as architecture, interior design and industrial design. Often the display focuses on the work of one established or upcoming designer.
