Located next to Urho Kekkonen National Park in Finnish Lapland, Javri Lodge is a wooden chalet-style boutique hotel combining sustainable design and astonishing nature with luxury. When designing the historical log cabin, the architects at Raiha Interiors used Bolon’s customized flooring with a Silence pattern to create an ambience that replicates the calmness of the surrounding nature.
“The sustainable values were really important in the design process. Part of it was to choose sustainable materials to complement the materials of the old log house. Our starting point was that we had a 50-year-old house, that got about double the size with a modern building part. Then Bolon came into the picture – that’s a modern kind of sustainability”, says Juha Mehtajarvi, one of the founders of Javri Lodge.
