Tampere School of Home Economics, Art Nouveau educational building in Tampere, Finland.

The three-story brick structure features curved window frames, decorative stonework, and symmetrical facades typical of early twentieth-century Finnish architecture.

The school opened its doors in 1905 under the direction of architect Wivi Lönn, marking a milestone as one of Finland's first educational buildings designed by a woman.

The institution represents Finland's commitment to domestic science education, reflecting social changes and educational priorities during the country's period of autonomy.

Located at Koulukatu 18, the building maintains protected status through town planning regulations while continuing to serve educational purposes.

The structure combines functional educational spaces with Art Nouveau elements, establishing new standards for institutional architecture in early 1900s Finland.
