The Housing Fair (part II) is not only the largest housing and living event in Finland, it is also a significant idea bank and marketplace both in the real world and on the internet. Every year, for four weeks in July-August, various living solutions and residential areas are showcased at the Housing Fair. The needs of different demographical groups are taken into consideration at the planning stage and a wide range of building, renovation, interior design and landscaping solutions are presented every time.
This year The Housing Fair was in Lohja, the next in Naantali. Me & hubby visited the Lohja fair with friends and took a few photos. I liked a lot the simple Scandinavian decoration in earthy tones. My own home is not this stylish, but you can always dream!
This children’s room was adorable. There was a lot to see!
This is Designtalo’s Idyll. If you wish to walk through the house, clic to the video HERE!
On the video you can see a luxury walk-in-closet that was in many houses.
I could not resist this beautiful Physalis alkekengi in pot.
I have somehow lost it in my garden and shall later plant this into the ground.
As to colors I think it fits the color sceme. Photographed in front of my old
and withered picture fame where I have put a mirror.

Wishing you all a relaxing & sunny weekend, stay well & healthy!

Guten Morgen Riita,
VastaaPoistadas ist aber eine tolle Wohnungsmesse. Das Sofa, würde mir gefallen, das würde so passen, wie ich es möchte, aber ich kann doch nicht nach Finnland fahren. Ich suche weiter.
Warum gibt es das bei uns so nicht.
Die Wand mit der Tapete im Kinderzimmer, sehr schön, aber dauerhaft könnte ich das nicht brauchen. Aber wem es gefällt, warum nicht.
Gibt es schon Physalis? Ja, der September steht vor der Tür und die Zeit vergeht. Dir ebenso ein schönes Wochenende und liebe Grüße Eva
This Physalis was so pretty at the florist, I just had to have it. The autumn is approaching. Warm greetings to you Eva.
PoistaGood morning dear Riitta! I would also like the style ... but above all the bathtub! Such a great part!
VastaaPoistaNice how you arranged the physalis. I've already filled it with a string of lights. That looks great too!
Warm greetings
Anne
Liebe Riitta,
VastaaPoistasolche Ausstellungen finde ich auch immer sehr interessant, wenn auch nicht alles immer unbedingt meinen Geschmack trifft, so sehe ich mir die verschiedenen Designs doch gerne an. Und so manche Idee begeistert mich auch, und manchmal setzte wir solche Ideen dann auch zu Hause um.
Ich wünsche Dir ein schönes Wochenende.
Viele liebe Grüße
Wolfgang
Dear Riitta,
VastaaPoistaI dream too - it is a beautiful living place that you show from the housefair - I like the simple furnitures and decoration. The kitchen ist a dream ... and the bathroom too!
Greetings from Germany

I once had a Physalis plant that found its way into one of my pots in the garden. It only produced a few fruits. Your Physalis is very colourful and I too wouldn't be able to resist buying if I were to see one here.
VastaaPoistaI like a housing fair, different to my style but sometimes to get inspiration.
VastaaPoistaPretty the Physalis. Good luck in your garden with it.
Greetings to you

I'd love that bath and the wall paper - but in a lounge room...(I may have been lockdown for too long...??;)
VastaaPoista:DD Try to survive!
PoistaThanks for sharing the nice images of the House fair. I like sisustus programs and watch many of them on tv. I do like this kind of things.
VastaaPoistaYour Physalis is lovely. My plants are in the garden, outside, but going pretty well also this year.
Happy weekend! (Let's hope not so rainy...)
Da wäre ich gerne dabei gewesen. Man konnte bestimmt ganz wunderbare Ideen entdecken.
VastaaPoistaLG
Magdalena
Dear Riitta,
VastaaPoistaI think REAL people never live in a home that is sooooo stylish ;-) If a real person designs his or hers home so soberly, then in my opinion this person does not really LIVE. I think the subtle furniture is beautiful (I generally like Scandinavian design very much), but to live in it I miss books, photographs, holiday memories, painted pictures, style breaks ... just everything that makes a house come alive.
Your beautiful physalis in the orange pot also brings your home to life - and the colors go wonderfully with late summer and coming autumn.
All the best from Austria,
Traude

PS:
I've had to think of you a lot lately, because you recently lost your beloved cat Sissi. Unfortunately we also had to let our cat Maxwell cross the Rainbow Bridge last week... (https://rostrose.blogspot.com/2021/08/rip-liebster-aller-maxwells.html)
...beautiful modern interior!
VastaaPoistaBeautiful home!!!
VastaaPoistaThe light colors of Scandinavia's interiors of houses I have always admired. So delightful. Thank you for sharing it with us, Riitta. Nevertheless, I also love the bright colors of the plnd you are showing. Have a lovely weekend, Emille (Jesh)
VastaaPoista...I can't link, here is my post:

Good evening dear Riitta
VastaaPoistaI love the bathtube…
Physalis grow also in my garden and at the moment they are changing colour and will soon bei orange. I will use them for decorations.
Have a sunny weekend and hugs
Eda
How come I never had jungle wallpaper? ;-)
VastaaPoistaOh, how beautiful your Physalis is. I am delighted with it.
VastaaPoistaRiitta, your photos are perfect.
Have a nice weekend.
Scandinavian design appeals to me with its clean lines and simplicity. Your physalis is beautiful, and looks so well in the orange pot.
VastaaPoistaTu physalis se ve muy bien, los míos se están perdiendo en el jardín. Besos.
