This book consists of photographs taken and personally selected by the Finnish Architectural photographer Jussi Tiainen. All the 28 buildings in the book have been completed since 1994. They represnt a wide variety of types, from large public buildings to private houses and they are located in Tallinn, Berlin and different parts of Finland. What they all have in common is the high quality of their architecture: they represent the best Finnish architecture of the last few years. The photographs all share the uncompromising view of the photographer: the way he brings out the harmony of colours and forms.
