The works of these artists, Michael SCHILKIN, Birger KAIPIAINEN, Rut BRYK, Kaj FRANCK, and Kyllikki SALMENHAARA, have made a significant contribution in moulding Finland as a design-centred country, receiving the highest number of design awards globally as compared to the size of its population.
With Southeast Asia being recognized as the new growth engine of the world economy and a significant market for Finnish companies, Design Finland 100 aims to foster new relationships with academic institutions such as Raffles Singapore.
Be awe-inspired and let these Finnish artists’ works take your breath away, in our multimedia exhibition, conceptualized by our Raffles Digital Media Designers, through Virtual Reality, Motion Sensor, and Augmented Reality.
