Abstract

Titled New Standards, the Pavilion of Finland’s exhibition at the 17th International Architecture Exhibition of La Biennale di Venezia will explore the history of the often overlooked but internationally significant Puutalo consortium, which designed and manufactured timber buildings in Finland from the 1940s to the 1980s. The exhibition will demonstrate how combining forces can result in finding permanent solutions in a crisis.
