April 26: Southern Finland tour – Muuratsalo 2
More from Muuratsalo, plus the reentry into Helsinki.
This is a permanent cage for Aalto's boat.
There it is.
The name means "no one is a prophet in his own land."
A gnome path.
Fun gi!
Sauna joints.
The house, also lurking behind the birches.
A lil' bit of parhelic circle (just above the trees, directly below the sun).
Looking out toward Säynätsalo and Jyväskylä.
Either someone just dunked a rock in or water is splashing up from that foreground wet spot of its own accord.
Wooden retainers for steps, again like at the Town Hall.
Back side.
Looking up into the courtyard.
Elevational view of the north courtyard wall.
Drain for the concave roof.
Lo-tech shims.
Garden shed area.
I like how it's a little rustic enclosure like an animal pen or something.
Looks soft enough to nap on!
A little beach just before leaving Muuratsalo.
A ski area in the distance, it would seem.
Our lunch stop on the way back.
An old Blockbau farmhouse.
A charmingly weird suspension bridge.
There's Oopperatalo, so we must be back in Helsinki.
