WeeGee, Tapiola, Espoo, Finland – 3rd phase
Two of the four construction phases in Ruusuvuori’s original design were carried out as he designed them. The first phase was completed in 1964 and the second was completed on the western side in 1966. Ruusuvuori was also chosen to design the third phase (or the head office) in the beginning of the 1970s. However, the new owner of the company demanded that the same office be responsible for both the design and construction of the expansion due to financial reasons. Ruusuvuori did not agree to this. Therefore, full responsibility for the third phase was assigned to the engineering office Bertel Ekengren, which did not continue Ruusuvuori’s architecture based on structural units. Consequently, Ruusuvuori fully dissociated himself from the “engineering part” of construction. The fourth phase was never fulfilled according to the original plan.
Futuro 001
Futuro, or Futuro House, is a round, prefabricated house designed by Matti Suuronen, of which fewer than 100 were built during the late 1960s and early 1970s. The distinctive flying saucer like shape and airplane hatch entrance has made the houses popular among collectors. The Futuro is composed of fiberglass-reinforced polyester plastic, measuring 4 metres high and 8 metres in diameter.
The WeeGee Exhibition Centre, Tapiola, Espoo, Finland is a cornucopia of museums, exhibitions and events, includes five museums, a modern art gallery, a café and three museum shops. This building, originally designed as a printing house by architect Aarno Ruusuvuori, has been transformed into a unique exhibition centre for culture and different events. It contains over 20'000 square metres of living culture, art, exhibitions and events.
Futuro 001 has been owned by TV celebrity Matti Kuusla since its manufacture. It is worth noting that despite the 001 numbering this was not the first Futuro manufactured - the prototype was numbered 000 and that Futuro has been fully restored and is on display at the Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen in Rotterdam, Netherlands. The Futuro has spent its life on a lakeside property in Hirvensalmi where, mainly because it has never had an electrical supply, it has been only used in a very limited way.
First time shooting the Crown in "Weegee mode": handheld, using the rangefinder and viewfinder. The viewfinder is conservative - this was framed so that the head and paw were touching the edges of the finder.
