The Futuro was designed by the Finnish architect Matti Suuronen in the 1960s for mass production as a kit of prefabricated parts, which can be assembled, taken apart and reassembled anywhere. — NYT
Alice Rawsthorn visits a prototype of Mr. Suuronen’s mobile house which is now on view at the Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen in Rotterdam in “Futuro: Constructing Utopia,”. She writes that the exhibit "offers both a whistlestop tour of the history of form in design and an opportunity to see some intriguing objects, particularly the older, artisanal pieces. Even so, the star of the show is the Futuro prototype, which is on public display for the first time since being acquired and restored by Museum Boijmans."
