Project: Suurupi House, Suurupi, Estonia
Client: Mait Rõõmusaar

Muru and Pere have taken what was essentially a simple wooden ’matchbox’, one-storey private house, and added a series of unusual spatial augmentations to create a large bespoke family home, ultimately better suited to the growing needs of a young family. Initially, the original living space was extended out to a newly created terrace, yet more recently an outside pool, as well as another floor with sauna and relaxation room, have been created. This new first floor, which has been pulled out of the matchbox and placed crosswise, has been covered with ’tangled matches’ which resembles an angular bird’s nest, or ball of pressed hay - an effect that’s heightened when it glows in the dark.
