Artek
One of four founders of the Artek brand, Alvar Aalto’s pieces embrace the brand’s dedication to blending art and technology for the sake of promoting “a modern culture of living.” His furniture, like his buildings, strike a balance, exist in harmony with their surroundings, and possess only ver carefully considered details.
A leader of the modernist movement, Alvar teamed up with his wife Aino to inject a uniquely architectural perspective into lighting, textiles, and furniture, creating his first piece in 1932. Alvar’s legacy lies in the pieces he designed that continue to be reproduced for the benefit and admiration of current and future generations.
