Towards the New Museum of Architecture and Design with the Public
The Museum of Finnish Architecture and Design Museum Helsinki invite exploration of architecture and design through their joint program at their familiar addresses, Kasarmikatu 24 and Korkeavuorenkatu 23. The design competition for the New Museum of Architecture and Design will be featured in the museums' summer program.
In the "Utopia Now" exhibition's AD-museum room, visitors can explore the history of the two museums, as well as the location and planning of the new museum building. This space also allows visitors to work on their own ideas for the future museum by building and testing them with Legos on the museum's site and as part of the cityscape. Learn more about the exhibition on the Design Museum's website.
During the guided walking tours in July and August, attention will be drawn to museum buildings in the heart of Helsinki, inspired by the competition for the New Museum of Architecture and Design. See the schedule for public walking tours.
