“赫尔辛基设计周”(赫尔辛基Design Week)被重击者梅森·特·奥贝特(Maison Et Objet)和伦敦设计节(London Design Festival)放在设计日历的两侧，可能很容易被忽视-这并不是芬兰静悄悄的设计师们第十二届北欧艺术节吸引了约15.8万名游客-比去年的数字增长了32%-是一场充满自信的芬兰盛事，有256个展览、装置和活动主要庆祝当地人才。

今年的标志性项目HDW HOP以安装小径的形式在整个城市展开。以柏林为基础的艺术集体塑质奇观以用充气塑料泡泡包装赫尔辛基历史性的三史密斯雕塑开始了创作过程，这里举办了讲习班、讲座和当地的爵士乐队。在这座城市的其他地方，芬兰的中流砥柱Marimekko邀请观众更仔细地看看它的旗舰店橱窗，而Iittala收集的玻璃鸟则镶嵌在一个华丽的设施中。

新的设计外交使包括斯洛伐克和日本在内的十几个外国大使馆向公众开放，让芬兰设计师和东道国进行一系列热烈的讨论。大胆的设计朝圣者可能会沉溺于芬兰著名的桑拿文化，在五个公共热点举行了一系列会谈，其中包括最近揭幕的“洛利”(L Yly)，这是一座由阿文托建筑师(Avanto Architect)建造的引人注目的海滨木结构。

在梅苏克斯库斯会议中心，阿法尔将芬兰家具的最新情况汇集在一起。它可能缺乏瑞典或米兰同行的规模和广度，但在展台上仍有大量人才有待发掘，在那里，年轻的新兴设计师的展示被证明是人才商店区的一个特别亮点。楼上，展厅是对博览会的一个新的补充，设想作为一个空间设计和照明活动，以专业人士为目标。在这里，品牌展示他们的产品与阿拉斯建筑师设计的戏剧背景。

在芬兰为明年的百年庆典做好准备之际，充满活力的芬兰渴望展示其设计实力。如果这个版本的HDW是什么可参考的，我们是在一个令人兴奋的节目。

A trail of installations unfolded across the heart of Helsinki. German art collective Plastique Fantastique encased the city's historic Three Smiths sculpture with a giant plastic bubble, entitled superKOLMEMEN, which hosted lectures, workshops and even a jazz band.
