Artek Alvar Aalto Designer Furniture

"Form is a mystery that defies description but brings people pleasure." - Alvar Aalto
Artek is different from most companies in that they have a huge product portfolio from the Aalto's, which was created in the 1930's. His designs, their ideology, are still the backbone of what Alvar Aalto does. Artek can't compete with the big companies that push out lots of products, so they don't do a new design if there isn't an innovation in the materials or manufacturing. That's why Artek often works with architects.
