Helsinki_2012

 

Helsinki, the capital of Finland has been awarded the title of World Design Capital 2012.

It’s an appropriate location for the title being the capital city at the centre of a design focussed society. Good design has long been recognised in Finland. Even as a Finnish child living in Australia Pasi was familar with the Finnish designers of the household furniture, homewares and fabrics about the house.

Design events – exhibitions and interactions are being held throughout 2012 – in July Pasi will travelling to Helsinki to get immersed!
