In his campus plan, Alvar Aalto placed the
School of Science and Technology main
building in a very visible, central location.
Situated on one of the seven hills of the
area, at the end of a row of lime trees, it is
sure to be seen; its landmark feature, the
striking amphitheatre-like auditorium is
particularly noticeable.
