2019 marked the 100-year anniversary of diplomatic relations between Finland and Japan, Artek, a quintessentially Finnish company - takes advantage of the centennial to examine the relationship between the two diverse cultures via a shared love of creativity. The unique colour schemes put forth by Nagasaka, a celebrated architect, make for a bold statement piece, with the tradition of the Artek stool both countered and complemented by the hyper-modern use of colour. Available in three vivid colourways, the Artek 60 Stool - ColoRing is an ultra-effective piece of post-modern furniture that is also available as an Artek 153B Bench. Part of the Artek 60 Stool family.
As one of the great architects and furniture designers of the 20th century, Finnish designer Alvar Aalto breathed life and warmth into modernism, placing emphasis on "organic" geometry; supple, natural materials; and a respect for human feeling.
Alvar Aalto's collection of mid-century furniture and lighting is produced exclusively by Scandinavian brand Artek including the iconic Artek 60 Stool.
