RE: Architecture+Design Community Contest: World Architecture Day/ The Kurhaus (The Resort Hall) in Haapsalu, Estonia

Thank you for showing us this traditional Estonian architecture! The wooden carvings are really impressive. It does resemble some of the country houses I saw in Russia.

I think that carving of wood for architectural decoration of buildings was brought to Estonia from Russia. Estonian style is usually different - very laconic, simple but still interesting.
