The Luuslangi model home is ready
Liven’s interior architect Anita Karma has designed the Luuslangi show home, which you can explore in the gallery. The interior design is inspired by Luuslangi’s concept of homes created for rest and relaxation. The show home features soft, natural tones that create a warm and cosy atmosphere.
The three-room show home is the first completed home in Luuslangi where visitors can explore the interior solutions. The first buildings will be ready for residents to move in this winter.
“My favorite idea is that at Luuslangi, we’re not just creating homes for people—we’re also providing frog ponds and nesting boxes for birds,” says Liven’s interior architect Anita Karma, who also designed the model home. The home begins right at the green entranceway in the courtyard.
The same atmosphere continues inside: green tones in the stairwells, veneered furniture, and black accents bring a forest-like feel into the home. The model apartment features warm, natural tones, and floor-to-ceiling windows let plenty of light into the room.
“I left some open space above the kitchen cabinets, the backrest of the sofa is shorter than the seat, and there are no armrests at all. These design choices create a more airy feel,” explains Anita.
Despite its small size, the apartment is well-suited for entertaining guests. The kitchen and living room are separated by a large kitchen island, around which people can gather to cook and sit together. “It’s important to me that the cook feels comfortable too, which is why I left a seating area on the kitchen side of the island,” says Anita. In warmer weather, the living space extends onto the terrace.
The sink and stovetop are recessed into the countertop, and black accents run throughout the kitchen and common areas. The lighting plan has also been carefully thought out—the track lights in the kitchens move as needed, and instead of the usual single large ceiling light, the living rooms have four smaller ones, which provide more flexibility for creating different lighting zones.
Custom-made furniture, such as the kitchen and closets, is locally produced. The sofa and bed were also made in Estonia, while the rest of the furnishings come from Scandinavian stores—resulting in a Nordic, affordable, yet tasteful whole.
In the entryway and bedroom, mirrored cabinets create a more spacious feel—pink ones in the bedroom, gray ones in the entryway, both with black handles. “I encourage people to use mirrors; they really do make rooms feel more spacious,” says Anita.
