If you have never visited before, after following the cycle+walk+service road alongside Turunväylä, you turn left up the hill after coming onto Tarvo island, and then left to the current 'dead end' [NB: Itäinen Tarvosilta is still not fixed yet], you come into our houseyard of the dark-grey-roof-topped Villa. Kitchen Lab Tarvo door is the one facing you first, with porch, with the black bird/heart sign in the top-right pane of the door window.
