Cliffhanger Riverside Villa / Pirinen Salo Oy
The villa makes the landscape and surrounding nature a part of everyday life. The density of themes and motifs in the nature formed main space are tuned to match the landscape and nature on the other side of the glass walls. This combined with a color scheme that creates visual connections with the landscape, makes the landscape an immersive experience - Living as a part of the landscape in nature. The villa is built on the bank of an L-bend in the river overlooking a rapid. The living spaces and the bedrooms mirror the form of the L-bend. This concept allows for 1,5 km parallel view towards northeast (sunrise) and 1km parallel view towards northwest (sunset) along the river from both the living spaces and the bedrooms. The Hammastunturi wilderness area starts right on the other side of the river.
