[edit] Name
It says
"It is named after the Greek letter "chi" and on the word for "crossing" based on it alluding to the basic conceptual idea of its architect, Steven Holl."
I don't see a mention like that on Finnish page. Kiasma means chiasma in Finnish, so I assume "word for crossing" means chiasma. Or does "Robert Schediwy Kiasma - ein neues Kunstmuseum in: Staedtebilder - Reflexionen zum Wandel in Architektur und Urbanistik, Vienna 2005 p 98 ff" say something else?
