ViewThis limited-edition bench, a collaboration between Artek and Marimekko, combines Alvar Aalto's classic 1945 bench design with Maija Isola's iconic Kivet pattern from 1956. The Kivet pattern is applied to the birch veneer seat using marquetry, creating a unique surface where contrasting wood grains interact with light. Crafted from Finnish birch at Artek's factory in Turku, this bench is a testament to the fusion of printmaking artistry and wood bending technology.
