New European Bauhaus in Northern Finland

Tervetuloa mukaan Oulussa järjestettävään tilaisuuteen, jossa kuullaan pohjoissuomalaisesta NEB-toiminnasta ja tutustutaan Meri-Toppilassa sijaitsevaan Aaltosiiloon. Tapahtuma on englanninkielinen.
We warmly invite all New European Bauhaus (NEB) stakeholders and interested parties to Design Centre Proto in Oulu for an inspiring discussion on working with the NEB initiative in a Northern context. This is a great opportunity to connect, share insights, and explore innovative ideas shaping the future of NEB in Northern Finland and beyond.
Additionally, attendees will have the chance to visit Aalto Silo, the latest NEB partner in Finland, located in Meri-Toppila, Oulu. The silo, designed by Alvar Aalto, offers an iconic space where sustainability, climate change and the mix between science and art have a role to play in the spirit of New European Bauhaus.
