Kipsari is a vegetarian restaurant/bar in the premises of Aalto University School of Arts, Design and Architecture. I enjoy its cozy atmosphere, the beat-up sofas and dim lights. There’s also a small gallery for the students. Kipsari is run by ARTS student association TOKYO ry.

Pekka Kuivamäki is a ceramist and designer who is currently finishing his MA degree in Aalto University School of Arts, Design and Architecture (ARTS in short) in Helsinki. He is inspired by functionalist architecture and design and artists such as Kazimir Malevich and Donald Judd. Lately he has been working with subjects such as playfulness and multifunctionality and how they can together create meaningful design.

Helsinki / Park

When you say Central Park, you think New York, well, the Central Park in Helsinki is slightly different, it is a forrest belt in the city.

Helsinki / Restaurant

A french “bar à vin” in Helsinki?! Yes indeed! Thanks to our friend Niki :)

Helsinki / Shop

The Art department of Akateeminen kirjakauppa (Academic Bookshop) is an infinite source of inspiration. Since the store is located right in the centre of Helsinki it is easy to just drop in. The Store is designed by famous Finnish architect Alvar Aalto so even if you’re not into books it’s worth visiting.

Helsinki / Cafe

This place is known for the personal owner, Kostas, from Greece and they say the coffee is great, but I don't drink coffee. I come here for the Hot Chocolate, the best in town.

Helsinki / Museum

Another lovely outdoor recreation is Seurasaari Island. I enjoy walking around the island, but The Open-Air Museum of Seurasaari also displays the traditional Finnish way of life. You can't help running into some badass squirrels and mellow swans. The photo is taken in January.
