To celebrate Finnish design in Brighton, I created a 'modern' continuation for the archival materials used for this project. For this, I sought out people in the Finnish community of Brighton & Hove that were interested in taking part. We talked about what Finnish design means to them personally and how they use it in their daily lives. I then photographed the participants in their homes with their favourite Finnish design object.
