Anita will help you find and create a home at Luuslangi.

Anita has studied interior architecture in both Estonia and Portugal. She designed the first homes already during her university studies, i.e. she has more than ten years of experience. In addition, she has improved her education in the field of art education and worked as an art teacher.

It is a great joy and honour for Anita to be a guide in creating a home. The whole process is very individual and unique, as that is the most personal space, which must be designed with the wishes and needs of each family member in mind.

Art and design are what makes Anita tick. In her free time she paints and spends a lot of time in galleries and at cultural events. Also, being in nature and observing it rejuvenates her soul.

Eveli will help you find and create a home at New Zealand.

Eveli has more than 10 years of experience in the field of interior design, both in Estonia and in neighbouring countries.

She started her career designing kitchen furniture, but today, in addition to furniture, her portfolio of works includes furnishing homes, offices, retail space, nightclubs and even clinics.

Although Eveli is a real fan of her field, in addition to her work, she also likes to spend time actively with her family. They ride bikes, ski or swim together. Eveli’s family also has a dog, who is a full member of the family and with whom playing is also an active pastime.

Eveli also really likes to travel. Her favourite destinations so far have been San Francisco and Tokyo. She has been particularly impressed by the Japanese concept of zen, which lies behind the ultimate order. Travelling has also inspired Eveli in interior design. The warm tones of Asian countries, natural materials and minimalist overall impression are the ones she prefers to use in interior design.

Lennart will help you find and create a home at Iseära.

It can be said that architecture has surrounded Lennart all his life. Thanks to his grandparents who are architects and aunt who is an interior architect, he got acquainted with the nature of the field quite young. Lennart knew at an early age that he would become an interior architect. After graduating from the Estonian Academy of Arts in 2017, he worked in the architecture bureau ARS Projekt, where he was involved in the design and engineering of both private and public projects.

Lennart believes that good interior architecture is quite universal and is related to the proportion of rooms, layouts and functional solutions. The interior design of the rooms, on the other hand, is much more subjective.
At Liven, he wants to create value that is a combination of the above, because without a good interior architecture solution, the design has only a decorative role in the room, and good architecture without a suitable style can only leave the home environment a bleak place.
Lennart considers continuous self-development to be crucial. Therefore, in 2018, in order to maintain his academic form, he started studying at the Tallinn School of Economics as a marketing specialist.

Walking is his form of meditation – long walks by the sea or on city streets are an important part of the daily routine. Lennart also enjoys badminton and tennis.

Greete will help you find and create a home at Magdaleena 4.

Greete believes that everything happens for a reason. This is also true in the case of the past ten years, during which time she has encountered furnishing in a number of different ways through her work.

There have been a number of different challenges – as a member of the procurement team during the construction of a five star hotel, while engaged in project sales at a furniture company, as well as furnishing homes down to the last detail. Greete has decorated dozens of model apartments while working for development and construction companies, and also participated in creating the interior for a hotel being built outside of Estonia. Her hobby over the past few years has been the production and sale of custom-made designer carpets. Against the background of these larger and smaller endeavours, Greete has arrived at the understanding that the most important role is played by human relationships; professionally, as well as elsewhere. Greete approaches things with passion and must always have a project at hand. She likes to dream and plan ahead. She spends her free time with her family and friends. Amidst her fast paced life, Greete has rediscovered her love of sports. A while ago, her passion for sports was so strong that her friends suspected that she may be headed to the championships.

Kadri has served as office manager from 2010 onwards. Companies where she has previously acquired experience, are engaged in restate development and construction. Thus, Kadri has, to a lesser or greater extent, been exposed to the completion process of different buildings – from apartment blocks to large manufacturing
buildings.

Although Kadri studied politics and government at Tallinn University, it is office management that intrigues her. Thus, she can be like Hunt Kriimsilm who had at least nine occupations. Kadri is the eyes and ears of the office and enjoys being the biggest support to the team. She is glad that through work, she has developed an interest in the world of interior design. Hence, the hobby doesn’t have to become work – it can be the other way around. When it comes to people, Kadri considers sincerity and a good sense of humour to be important.

Overall, she appreciates an active lifestyle and sports are like form of meditation to her. After a working day, she unwinds at the gym or in the fresh air on the running track. In that way, the mind is rested and the spirit stays strong. Aside from sports, enjoying good food and traveling are no less important. New flavours, new places – these inspire the most. The cherry on top is to engage in all these activities with loved ones.

As a result of the passion for traveling, Kadri sympathizes with the statement that travel is the only thing you buy that makes you richer.

Martti graduated from Tallinn University of Technology and has a construction engineer diploma in his pocket. Literally. If you see him, feel free to ask.

Martti enjoys technically complex tasks and different geometric shapes. For example, one shape that Martti really likes is the golf circle. He mostly goes through it with his friends. Some of them aren’t even engineers, but that’s not the point. Martti believes that all people are good. And everything is possible.

Märt’s experience with construction management dates back to 2006. The list of objects that he has managed is quite diverse – apartment buildings, schools, a factory, a hangar, and the addition to a children’s hospital. In his work, Märt is guided by the principle that thorough preparation and planning ensure a successful final outcome.

Märt is originally from Saaremaa. He is tenacious and hard-working, traits which are common for a native of the island. A refreshing soft drink, sauna, and different types of fish are all well suited for a pleasant moment of relaxation. In addition to domestic pleasures, Märt also loves to discover more distant locales – he is especially interested in exotic natural locales and indigenous peoples.

Märt is a graduate of the Tallinn University of Technology. He holds a Master’s degree in Industrial Construction and Civil Engineering. He has also been awarded a Level 7 Diploma in Civil Engineering.

Argo is as versatile as a tetrahedron. Completing industrial and civil engineering at the TallinnUniversity of Technology was not enough for Argo. He was dead-set to learn more about business management. Of course, the latter came in handy, and to date Argo has helped develop hundreds of apartments both in Tallinn and Pärnu. Besides all this, he himself remains modest and lives in only one of them.

Argo believes that the best things happen when the task is so impossible that there must be a solution somewhere. And there always is. In most cases, the answer lies in thorough preparation.

Versatile Argo likes sports, but even then there must be several areas. In recent years he has been focusing on triathlons, as tetrahedrons like it.

Pärle is on long term leave.

Emil entered the field of construction at the age of 14. That was a while ago and he wasn’t working at Liven then. He just earned pocket money in the summer. However, he began to like the field, and a few years later he graduated from Tallinn University of Technology with a higher education in construction management.

Emil is not a big fan of stress, but he is used to it. Emil always manages. He is calculating and rational, as economists think every person should be.

When Emil is not working, he is resting. For him, vacation means marathon-scale bike rides, because then you can see what engineering solutions nature has come up with. Nature always inspires.
