Timber Houses Ltd. 1940-1955

Standardization in building is frequently deplored as monotonous and boring, but it persists as a recurring dream for architects, who aim to harness the power of industrial production.

New Standards examines the conditions that affect standard, industrial and manufactured buildings by revisiting a forgotten chapter of wood architecture in post-war Finland. The story centers on the industrial enterprise Puutalo Oy (Timber Houses Ltd.), which was established in 1940 as part of Finland´s response to a refugee crisis brought about by war. In less than a decade, the company became on the largest manufactures of prefabricated wooden buildings in the world.
