Ruusuvuori was one of the most renowned architects in Finland during the 1960s, well known for designing modernist buildings, often using exposed concrete, often in the brutalist style.

This saga, together with many other developments where historical buildings were demolished was captured in an influential book by architects Vilhelm Helander and Mikael Sundman, titled Kenen Helsinki?

Ruusuvuori continued to work on the large scheme throughout the 1970s, completing it in 1988, but toned down the scale of the earlier proposed demolitions.

The Weilin & Göös Print Works (1964–66), Espoo, designed by Ruusuvuori, was closed down at the end of the 20th century.

It was then purchased by the City of Espoo, which had it converted into the WeeGee Exhibition Centre for culture and the arts, which opened its doors to the public in October 2006.
