Beautiful Finland

Spending couple of days in the lovely city Helsinki we were discovering the beginning of the modernist Scandinavian design. Visit to the Alvar Aalto house and studio gave us a proper background for all others exhibitions. Technical University and the Hospital of this architect were not a question mark anymore but a consequent dialog between the light, white, wood, and the form. Shopping in the finish Marimekko woke up the need for patterns, colors and fabrics in the interiors.. Marimekko fabrics have some of the brightest and boldest prints in the world. They are just amazing to look at and whether you love colors or not you certainly will find something that suits you. Of course we could not resist a small souvenir from colorful iittala glass!

Those tree words are the reason to come back to Helsinki again for more inspiration. At the moment we can tell you the story how it was...







Walking slowly to the exhibitions area close to the harbor we fond lamps that are filling interior with color and soul. In the second plain you can see also Aalto's lamp. Helsinki is proud about their architect, you can notice that on every corner of the street..
