Designed by Eero Saarinen in 1935, this final renovation to the historic Swedish Theatre is perhaps its most beautiful iteration yet. Its new facade, a picture of fundamentalism, provides a stark white backdrop fantastically lit against the sky, providing a color contrast between the radiant theatre and surrounding Helsinki. The uniform appearance of the building serves to make a functional artistic statement, returning to the roots of architectural design.
