In 2010, the City of Helsinki invited the Solomon R. Guggenheim Foundation to prepare a feasibility study for a new museum in the Finnish capital. Conducted in 2011, presented in 2012, and revised in 2013, the detailed concept and development study proposed an innovative, multidisciplinary museum of art and design, thoughtfully integrated into a prominent site on Helsinki’s South Harbor. It was envisioned that the museum would host globally significant traveling exhibitions, generate its own exhibitions, and foreground Nordic heritage, Finnish design, and artistic inquiry.
