Alusta, built from clay and populated by plants, is a sanctuary for pollinators and a meeting place for all living things
Alusta is a meeting place based on Maiju Suomi's and Elina Koivisto’s idea, built in central Helsinki in the courtyard between the Museum of Finnish Architecture and Design Museum.
