""The home is in the center of Turku, sheltered by a lovely courtyard, next to an old synagogue," Mira begins. "Home is our safe haven, because we have experienced a lot here, such as my husband's brain cancer and my own postpartum depression. The colors have brought us strength in difficult times, and wherever I look here, a small smile tends to my lips.""
"When she and her husband moved in the apartment, located in a building from 1928, 13 years ago, it had not been renovated for decades. While that meant it was in its original condition, it also meant things were very old. Fast-forward to today, and the apartment is "bubbly, cheerful, and multilayered." The colors actually weave a common thread throughout each room, particularly the way she's paired colors, which Mira really loves."
The apartment sits in the center of Turku, sheltered by a courtyard next to an old synagogue. The two-bedroom home houses a couple and their two children and occupied a 1928 building that had not been renovated for decades. The family endured the husband's brain cancer and the wife's postpartum depression. Bold, paired colors and multilayered interiors create a bubbly, cheerful atmosphere that functions like an antidepressant, bringing strength and small smiles in difficult times. Art, glasswork, lamps, sofas, and everyday furniture appear throughout while the space remains playful and unpretentious.
