HELSINKI SCHOOL
of ECONOMICS
Built as the Helsinki School of Economics in 1950, and reborn as the home of Aalto University
Executive Education in 2020, this striking building in central Helsinki has educated Finland’s
economic elite for over 70 years. A landmark example of 1950s modernist architecture, it
was designed by architects Hugo Harmia and Woldemar Baeckman, with Paavo Tynell
commissioned to design lighting for the interiors.
