You're standing at Tamminiemi, Villa Ekudden in Swedish. The name means Oak Cape. The villa sits in a park by the sea, in Helsinki's Meilahti district. Take a look at the shapes and colours of the house. This is Jugendstil, the Finnish take on Art Nouveau. Architects Sigurd Frosterus and Gustaf Strengell designed it for the Danish-born businessman Jörgen Nissen. During a big renovation between 2009 and 2012, the outside got its original colours and decorative motifs back.
