Fantastic! My "Kierto" design for Marimekko was featured on the cover of Coté Sud magazine this month. Seems like the the longing for colour is everywhere.

Crave for colour
Suddenly, my brown shaded 50s ceramics looked tired and dark on the windowshelf. The spring light is so bright, and our meter-high piles of snow reflect every ray.
I crave for color! So here's my new set of second-hand vases that will cheer me up while I´m waiting for my garden to wake up.

Garden green nostalgia
Like so many book lovers, I've tried to read Marcel Proust's Remberance of Things Past. I get to the famous madeleine passage and then head to the cupboard - only to resume the same travail the following spring.
Sometimes I wonder if the pictures we take with ever fancier cameras are actually madeleines of sorts - tasty, tempting morsels of memory.
Basque spring
As winter's grip relaxes in Finland, my friend in Basqueland is already enjoying the first green of spring.
The "white house" is a typical Basque rural home or etxea. These houses are usually built facing east to greet the rising sun.
