The author ' s main purpose was to give the empty house of the Karel Youth Society a second life, following the original design of its creators, but adapting it to the needs of a modern human being.

The planning decision provides for all the necessary facilities for interesting leisure activities. These include a large concert hall for public events, a play and workshop, a room for soft sports practices and two kitchens. One is in a dining room format and is safe for children. The second is a full-scale cooking area and small cooking workshops.

The project’s palitaire must be natural and must convey the beauty of the Karelian nature, but must also summon associations with magical fairy tales. A cranberry-red, deep grey-blue and dusty-flavored shade were selected as focus flowers.

Game

The areas of the game and workshop are separated by a partition referring to a typical northern architecture window-opening used, including in the construction of the young people ' s home in question. The game zone has a modular couch that resembles boulders, and the desk supports in the workshop are made of whole pine logs.

The hall next to the kitchen is in the same style as the dining room hall. The rockets are also put into common space, making them more suitable for use during cooking and sports activities.
