A woman created a house with her own hands that she had imagined in her dreams.
Sometimes our dreams are so powerful that we can’t get them out of our thoughts.
Have you ever seen in your dreams what you want for? This Finn fantasised about the mansion of her dreams. And, inspired by this image, she resolved to turn her dream into a reality with her own hands.
Riikka Sirenius is the name of this woman. She is a single mother who works in the emergency services. Riikka accidently fell asleep during one of the shifts and saw the house.
It didn’t appear like typical cottages, yet it was just how a woman imagined herself living. She took some paper and a pencil the next morning and drew a sketch of this edifice.
The woman then went straight to the building department to present the specialists her sketch. One of the architects was intrigued by the original notion and eagerly began sketching a design for the future home.
Riikka eventually acquired the whole scheme. The sketch depicted an octagonal structure and computed all of the expenditures associated with its construction.
Her father assisted the woman in carrying out the idea, but he became unwell and construction had to be halted. Riikka assisted his father’s recovery before returning to the project. The summer was coming to a close, but the woman was not going anywhere.
While the wood was being cut, the single mother and her children began constructing the foundations and framework. The cold appeared as yet another impediment to the realisation of the ambition.
Riikka was already considering postponing the construction and returning to the city when the children suggested staying in the summer house and working on the project at the same time.
As a result, the construction took around a year and a half. The final touch was cleaning up the area, which involved not only youngsters but also close friends.
Riikka organised a housewarming party for her friends and family when the building was finished. Guests were likely impressed for a long time after witnessing such a wonder, which was even hand-built.
