Extravagant: Siena large tray Artek
This beautiful tray by Artek is a homage of the Finnish cult designer Alvar Aalto to the Italian city in Tuscany. Inspired by the marble tiles of the cathedral at the Plaza del Duomo, Aalto returned to Finland and created patterns for different objects, just also for this tray, which came on the market in 1954 and consists of plywood and paper. The rectangular design tray by Artek is available in different colour combinations. Brick red/beige, grey/light grey, black/white or white/sand beige. And one thing is for sure, with this history-steeped helper, everything can be transported wonderfully easily - and be sure, this extraordinary design will be the topic of conversation at every one of your celebrations. Our tip: There are also matching Siena place mats.
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.
