* Architectural models
   The Model Exhibition was the first attempt to pay special attention to the model as 
   an architectural medium, and to explore how many models have been preserved in 
   Estonian museums. By exhibiting a selection of architectural models of different 
   periods and types, the exhibition enables to see both the functional differences of 
   the models and their stylistic development.

* Architectural Photo: Kaido Haagen
   For the photographer Kaido Haagen the idea was to notice contrasts between new 
   architecture and old environment. Contrast does not always have to mean conflict. 
   Rather, the juxtaposition of different qualities reveals an attempt to freeze the 
   present moment in time. Towns will continue changing and apparently already in 
   the near future the scene in the neighbourhood of today’s new buildings will be 
   different – people will get used to and accept them, contrasts become replaced by 
   more fluent transitions, and the environment becomes more uniform. Fixing new 
   buildings as they were in the year 2000, the photographer attempts to notice the 
   process of the changing of the city, giving future generations the opportunity of 
   deciding about the courage or errors of today’s architects.
