"The international space-age craze of the 1960s stirred interest among Finnish architects,
but there was only one Finnish project that can be regarded as a bona fide sample of space-age
architecture: the Futuro house designed by Matti Suuronen. Its design encapsulated the distinctive
themes of 1960s utopian architecture: mobility, increased leisure time and new materials.
This plastic, ellipsoid, portable holiday hideaway represented something totally new in Finnish
architecture. Even by international standards, it is among the most striking samples of utopian
space-age design."
