This wooden villa, Villa Koli was built by Archiatre Juho Jaakko Karvonen in 1915. It is located in Espoo in the present regional centre Matinkylä and its village Koukkuniemi, less than 100 metres from sea. It was designed by the first Finnish female architect Wivi Lönn. She lost the drawings while travelling from Helsinki to the construction site. The drawings were received back with the help of a newspaper announcement and so the construction could be started.
