Design District Helsinki

Not all shopping is created equal, especially when it comes to Helsinki's Design District. This creative hub of the city is home to a wide range of boutiques, each offering something unique for those looking to enjoy Finnish design. From avant-garde fashion to handmade home goods, visitors can find a diverse selection of items that showcase the talent and innovation of local designers. Reaching back to the post-war era, Helsinki is a city that embraces cutting-edge architecture and design. The Stone Cathedral illustrates this best, but there is a thriving culture that is truly worth exploring. Check out the Design District just below the Esplanadi: within a few blocks of the city are around 200 design-oriented shops, galleries, buildings and attractions.
