The customised HEL/LO chairs are back from holidays, eager to seat Finnish and British architecture and design professionals this autumn. With two cities, two dates and two themes, the HEL/LO series offers double enjoyment this September. Join us in Helsinki or London for discussions on doing things one's own way, and of daring to think one step ahead.
HEL/LO – Let's Talk About Alternatives
