A sauna cabin in the Helsinki archipelago. The building follows the coastline with a terrace area that protects from the strong sea wind. The exterior cladding is made of larch that turns beautifully grey over time & blends perfectly into the cliff, so the buildings do not stand out from the shore when seen from the sea.
An exterior that is pitch black with an inside full of heat, with the gilded logs and light plywood. A wonderfully stylish mix of textiles in graphic designs. Generally a lot of wood throughout the house. The hallway leading to two bedrooms is like a light box with two desks in the corridor – each in front of a window – contributing to an ascetic self-discipline when working or studying, with nature close up. A stunning home!

Design in one with nature – materials & colors following nature’s own. Architecture that externally melts in with the surrounding, an internally with nature close up.

I have a penchant for furnishing that may not always be appreciated in the family. Like this solution with furniture along the wall instead of being positioned opposite each other.
