Liven
Harmony is created together
The starting point for Anne and Erko’s home was simple – lots of sun, natural materials, minimalism. These were the only objectives when they looked for their very first shared home. The house on Alasi Street seemed to have all the right prerequisites for creating such a home from the first moment.
Less stuff. More colour
Gertrud, a teacher, moved from Tartu to Tallinn very spontaneously due to a great offer. In the middle of the week, with a suitcase in one hand and a pet carrier with her cat Bob in the other. Then she started looking for a home.
Life in the middle of a vibrant city
Edi and Rauno’s soon-to-be family of four who used to live in a house near the city saw the move into a smaller home not as an objective in itself, but the couple wanted a home in the middle of the vibrant city life, freedom from mowing the grass, and spontaneous meetings with friends.
Greenery without a home garden
On the day when Liven purchased the property on Alasi Street, Greete decided that it would become her new home. She had no idea what it would look like – no architect was yet appointed to design the house –, but as a girl from Northern Tallinn, she knew that it would have a perfect location near the sea and large parks, where the loudest noise from the windows would be birdsong while the city was just a couple of minutes away.
Colourful Koplifornia
A park, birdsong, a beach. For Rauno who had grown up in Pärnu, these three things defined the feeling of home. He and his wife Anett wanted a home for themselves and their two children right next to the centre of Tallinn but also close to nature, where no neighbours would peek in through their windows – they found all of it in Kopli.
A home for grown-ups
Katla Maja, located out of the way between Kultuurikatel, Kalasadam and the Old Town, is one of the most attractive addresses in Tallinn due to its high ceilings, an architectural design alluding to the industrial history of Northern Tallinn, and an excellent location both in the centre of the city and by the sea.
