Architecture & Design Museum, Building B
Architecture & Design Museum, Building B occupies Gustaf Nyström’s 1894 neo-Gothic former school on Korkeavuorenkatu, presenting exhibitions that connect Finnish and international architecture and design.
Why go
This address brings two kinds of design history together: exhibitions on architecture and designed objects inside a richly detailed former school. The neo-Gothic building provides a useful counterpoint to Helsinki’s better-known Functionalist landmarks, while the displays broaden the subject across industrial, graphic and fashion design.
What to look for
Gustaf Nyström designed the neo-Gothic former school completed in 1894.
Exhibitions cover architecture as well as Finnish and international design.
The Korkeavuorenkatu location sits within Helsinki’s established design district.
Useful to know
The former name Design Museum no longer identifies this venue officially; look for Architecture & Design Museum, Building B.
Check the museum’s current programme before visiting, as exhibitions change.
