Round and of classic design: E 60 Stool Artek 

Similar to its little brother on 3 legs, the stool 60 by Artek, which is also available in our shop, the E60 from Finland is also a style icon among designer furniture. in 1933, the round stool was presented by designer Alvar for the first time in Finland and was quickly considered a sensation in the world of Scandinavian design. The fascination of the bent wood technique developed by designer Alvar Aaltos has remained worldwide until today. A straight piece of birch wood is sawn open at one end in the direction of the grain, creating a fan. Thin pieces of veneer are glued into the grooves, creating a structure that can be bent when the wood is heated or steamed. Afterwards, the wood, bent into an L-shape, can simply be attached to the seat. This is exactly how the E 60 stool came into being, which then as now was and is also often used as a side table. The classic and simple birch wood look looks absolutely harmonious in combination with the complex and elaborate manufacturing process. The E 60 design stool is stackable and available in different versions, surfaces and colours. The classic is also available with upholstery and various fabric and leather covers.

Ingenious pioneer in furniture design: architect and designer Alvar Aalto

Alvar Aalto is considered one of the best designers and architects in the world. As early as the 1930s, the Finn amazed us with constructions that are still indispensable in the furniture industry today. Aalto is also the pioneer par excellence in laminated wood processing. Influenced by the German Bauhaus, he experimented with this material since the end of the 1920s and, together with his wife Aino Aalto, created numerous pieces of furniture that combined modern forms with natural materials. His architectural masterpieces include the Paimio Clinic in Turku (now a World Heritage Site), the library in Viipuri (in what is now Russia) and the Finnish pavilion at the 1939 New York World's Fair.

Artek - always modern

Artek was founded in Helsinki in 1935 by four young idealists: Alvar and Aino Aalto, Maire Gullichsen and Nils-Gustav Hahl. With their designs, they wanted to promote a modern culture of living. The radical spirit of its founders still lives in Artek today and so the company produces furniture from the world of modern design that stands at the interface of design, architecture and art. They are characterised by clarity, functionality and poetic simplicity.
