THE FINNISH POST

_REWIEW OF RANDOMIZED FINNISH MEMORIES_

publishing director: Martina Ruini

N°1 (22/11/2009)

"For the 1st number of the prestigious journal THE FINNISH POST , i've decided to begin with a topic that will illustrate some contemporary architecture ..... because actually it has been the main reason why 1 year ago i've moved to the nordic countries with my student's exchange program .

Therefore for the coming out of next numbers, this non-profit journal will propose "randomized" materials and info, that i've discovered by rummaging in my finnish memories.

Together with the description&photos you will always find my PERSONAL TAG, a sort of short suggestion .

That's all i want to say, just to motivate the realization of this initiative...

so are you ready for your departure to Finland ? " (M.R)

i got to know about Avanto Architects during my last months in the north of europe, surfing the net to see if i could find some place for an internship...then the story ended with my return in Italy on July, so no job -> POSTPONED TO NEXT SUMMER?

anyway

i appreciate a lot their works

so

THE TAG IS:

-MUST HAVE A LOOK-
