Hasta La Ideas

We didn’t go to many museums on our Scandinavian adventure (Glen and I prefer to wander the streets rather than museum halls), but when we were exploring Helsinki’s design district, we found the Päivälehti Museo—a museum of journalism and printing techniques with a focus on Helsingin Sannomat, Finland’s largest newspaper. The museum had excellent displays, but the best part was the printing cellar which had a step-by-step presentation of newspaper production from typesetting and pasteup to printing. Judging by the number of photographs I took, I’d say it was one of the highlights of Helsinki.
