TRANSCRIPT
KIASMA MUSEUM,Helsinki, Finland
..RELATIONSHIP TO SURROUNDING
• The curved “cultural line links the museum to Finlandia Hall, a conference and event space that expresses a type of modernism while the straight natural line connects it to the landscape and bay.
• The whole structure consists of three main elements: two building components and water.
• The contradicting building forms meet and create harmonious architecture. The building curves to connect to the bay and Finlandia Hall, this is alike to the museum paying homage to its context while the linear elements of the building corresponds to the landscape it surrounds.
