Taideko is the first Korean arts & design association in Finland and a non-profitable association. The association, Taideko, is a portmanteau of ‘taide’ (‘art’ in Finnish), ‘design’, and ‘Korea’.

We play a key role in enhancing mutual understanding between Korean and Finnish cultures through arts and design. We would like to share information and knowledge, perform creative activities and offer channels for mutual exchange with diverse cultural events such as exhibitions, workshops, seminars and publishing working papers in both countries. Our design identity may be derived from Korean design, but through the Finnish arts and design education as well as our Finnish life experiences, we believe that we have developed new identities in Finland as global artists and designers.
