This print is a composition of the ornamental timber strips found on buildings in the Puu-Käpylä area of Helsinki. Puu-Käpylä was built as social housing in the 1920’s and is constructed almost entirely from timber. Typically the decorations represent classical elements; pilasters, medallions and reliefs.
