The stoa, a covered outdoor walkway used for public debate in ancient Greece, inspired Finnish architect Alvar Aalto to design several stoas for the Otaniemi Âé¶¹´«Ã½. Between 2015 and 2020, as Aalto University’s Âé¶¹´«Ã½ underwent rapid development, students played an active role in shaping its architectural and urban design. Aalto Stoa served as a platform to showcase their proposals, encourage discussion, and highlight the value of student ideas in the Âé¶¹´«Ã½ transformation. Group X has now completed Aalto Stoa, and it has been archived for future historians. Explore it .
