Library Oodi to bask in white-and-blue light in honour of Finland’s centenary celebrations

The site of the library Oodi by the Kansalaistori Square will be ceremoniously lit from 5 Dec to 6 Dec 2017. The light installation is titled “An Ode to Finland”, highlighting the library of the future in majestic fashion. It honours the roles of literacy and literature in an independent Finland, and marks Oodi’s location at the very centre of Helsinki. The light installation is best seen from Mannerheimintie, but the white-and-blue lights can be seen in the sky from every direction.
