The KELA Head Office Building




KELA (The Social Insurance Institution) Head Office, 1956.

This huge office building is hidden in the Töölö district. 
Designed by Alvar Aalto, it is almost invisible - but still impressive and monumental at the same time.

In this building, everything is designed from places of trees and bushes to door handles, lamps and air nozzles. 





Some parts of this complex are very technical, functional.
Some forms are familiar from factories and ships - still everything seems to blend in rather well.
