Kitch - new eco bar and cafe

Although the Kitch bar and cafe is a new place most of it's decoration and stuff is recycled. For instance Helsinki-based Costo has made the lamps out of the old bicycle hoops and recycled advertising materials. Electricity of the bar is pure wind power and the usage of the electricity is minimized. Fair trade and organic ingredients are priorized, when the menu is planned, etc. etc.

Way to go Kitch!

"Villas and Saunas in Finland" by Harri Hautajärvi

Harri Hautajärvi's book "Villas and Saunas in Finland" presents villas and saunas from the marine archipelago via lake district to the fells of the north – a total of 44 individually-designed buildings that represent the best of recent Finnish summer home and sauna architecture. Harri Hautajärvi, former editor in chief of the Finnish Architectural Review, has selected the sites. They all differ from each other in interesting ways, ranging from simple log cabins to spacious villas. Each site is presented in detail through photographs and texts by the architects themselves.
