Finland and Norway Travel

​

In June of 2016, I traveled to Finland along with my class to study Alvar Aalto and some of his designs. We were each given a specific building to research and study before the trip, and then during the trip we each acted as a tour guide for our buildings. My building of study was the Saynatsalo Town Hall. 

After the school trip to Finland, two of my classmates and I went on to Norway to do some hiking. While we were there we had opportunities to see more architecture set in a more extreme environment.
