Public building in Finland can be said to have been initiated on 3 September 1811, when the Russian Czar established the Intendant's Office "to supervise architecture that is both useful and embellishing for all nations". Over time, the Office was succeeded by the Board of Public Buildings, the National Board of Public Building, the State Real Property Agency, and lastly the current Senate Properties. On display are remarkable public buildings from the days of Carl Ludvig Engel, the second Intendant, to the present day. The exhibition also presents visions of the Senate Properties for the design of future work environments.

The exhibition has been designed by architect Hannele Grönlund. Producers: Museum of Finnish Architecture, Senate Properties
