Exhibition at Aalto2 Museum Addresses Finland's Building Demolition Crisis

The 'Best not to Demolish' exhibition is now on view at the Aalto2 Museum Centre in Finland. This display responds to the country's current high rate of building demolition, which matches levels seen in the 1960s and 1970s. The initiative, started by architect Tommi Lindh of the Alvar Aalto Foundation, aims to raise awareness about unnecessary destruction of structures and promote the reuse of existing buildings. The campaign highlights that construction contributes significantly to Finland's climate emissions and waste production. The exhibition focuses particularly on preserving younger buildings from the 1960s and 1970s that are now at risk.
