Ksenia Breivo does not allow her work to be characterized by a particular style, because its boundaries are disappearing more and more. The interiors that she designs with Studio Breivo always radiate a certain feeling, that of casual elegance. She creates spaces where you can't help but feel good in it. This was also the case at Villa Kurkli.

Ksenia Breivo's love for architecture and design is genuine and the designer is not overly ambitious as long as she can keep doing what she is doing. This is also reflected in the way in which her projects are realized by mainly focusing on the quality of her work. Architecture is often the basis of her designs. Existing building forms and architectural volumes, together with the wishes of the customer, play the most important role in the development of a concept. Breivo's design philosophy is also expressed in the use of natural materials and she prefers to go for a limited number of items that are completely perfect than to put together lavish interiors. Reusing pieces and breathing new life into old designs also gives her a lot of satisfaction. Rather than being in line with a particular style, these elements create a unique atmosphere and energy.

Given the Villa Kurkli location and environment, The original concept of Breivo was to make the exterior part of the interior and integrate it with the landscape in a complex way.The villas are cave-like and She wanted to ennoble that aesthetic. For the color palette, the designer was inspired by the earth, the mountains, the sky and the different shades that nature displays throughout the day. This is a space for rest and seclusion where nature predominates and a man meditates, for him the nature outside becomes more important than the nature of things. She wanted to create a space where nothing distracts this person. Just the nature and the beauty of the shapes.

In function of this concept, Ksenia Breivo wanted to use as many local materials as possible. She studied the characteristics of the environment and the pure materials that characterize it. Furniture for this project will therefore be specially made from local wood, for example from apricot trees for small items, and for the carpets, Breivo will use sheep wool from farms in the region. These unique pieces are of course complemented by other interesting designs.
