Tehtaankatu 4

Helsinki
Finland
1901
This grand corner building was completed in 1901 and is a good example of transition-period (1895-1901) Art Nouveau Jugendstil design.
There is Classical symmetry in the facade but also novel use of granite in the lower section. The use of granite was both nationally symbolic and a big trend at the time.
“Kruununhaka is the original central district of Helsinki.”
