Futuro 001, out in the woods prior to its being moved for conservation by the Espoo City Museum in Finland.
It is expected conservation will be finshed by the summer of 2012 when it may be displayed outside their Exhibition centre.

This site is dedicated to the Futuro [aka Flying Saucer or UFO] House.

Architect: Matti Suuronen
Country of Origin: Finland
Year: 1968
Dimensions: Approx. 11 feet high & 26 feet across (3.4 meters x 8 meters)
Notes: The standard confifuration was: A hatch door in its lower half opened down to reveal steps, like the door of a small airplane, and led into a room outfitted with six plastic bed-chair combinations and a central fireplace slab, as well as a kitchenette, a bathroom and one small bedroom.

There are about 96 Futuros out there somewhere and hopefully they can all be accounted for one way or another. So far about 60% of the Futuros have been accounted for. Hopefully the others will be found soon as well. Thank you to everyone for their continued assistance in accounting for the various Futuros.

If anyone has any information on the Futuro I would love to hear from you!!
