The apartment is a little penthouse in Turku, Southern Finland designed by Maurizio Giovannoni. The artist decided on the overall “concept” together with his customer, organizing all the details that colored the white spaces. The floor is covered with parquet of white ash, the shelves are birch and the kitchen table is also birch but colored with heat. Wood is a omnipresent element in this flat as it constantly is for Finnish people, but the real attention is catalyzed by the nature theme pictured on wall paper, carrying colors and contrasts and a typical Mediterranean “courage”. I love very much the mix of the 2 cultures and of past & present: the grandmother’s armchair is a piece of Finnish vintage from the sixties as is the red floor lamp. Everything fits together in perfect harmony.
