The Finnish pavilion highlights the architects' ability to envision solutions to global problems

Archinfo is in charge of Finland's exhibition at the International Architecture Exhibition of La Biennale di Venezia. In 2023, the Finnish Pavilion introduces The Dry Collective's exhibition Huussi – Imagining the future history of sanitation, which questions the sanitary solution we take for granted, the flushing toilet. The Dry Collective includes curator Arja Renell, architects Emmi Keskisarja, Barbara Motta, Eero Renell and Janne Teräsvirta and graphic designer Antero Jokinen.

Huussi critically reassesses our sanitation system at a time when the sufficiency of drinking water and food production is a global problem. The exhibition invites the global architectural community and experts to develop new urban-scale solutions that saves water and recycles nutrients.

The 18th Venice Architecture Biennale is open to the public from 20 May to 26 November 2023. Welcome to Huussi!

Archinfo is the New European Bauhaus contact point in Finland

The New European Bauhaus initiative connects the European Green Deal to our daily lives and living spaces. It calls on all Europeans to imagine and build together a sustainable and inclusive future that is beautiful for our eyes, minds, and souls.

As Finland's national contact point for the New European Bauhaus initiative, Archinfo participates in an informal EU-wide network coordinated by the European Commission for exchange of experience. The most important mission for the contact point is to spread information nationally about e.g. funding possibilities and New European Bauhaus Festival and Prizes. The Ministry of the Environment, the Ministry of Education and Culture and the Ministry of Economic Affairs and Employment take part in coordinating the initiative.
