Finland Celebrates its 90th Anniversary

I think most of us think of Finland has having been around forever. Not so (go ask the Swedish and the Russians). Anyway, let’s all help Finn Style celebrate. Happy Birthday! Here are some new and favorite things.
Heikki Orvola, the designer of his 24h dinnerware, is considered one of the driving forces in Finnish design. These dishes (I love the color combination) was awarded the Design Plus Award in 1997.

Aino Aalto originally called the glass collection that carries her name Bölgeblick. Iitalia has released a set of four tumblers to celebrate the 75th anniversary of her design.

I’ve always loved this block lamp, designed by Harri Koskinen. This truly unique design has been part of the Museum of Modern Art New York collection since 2000. Now the lamp comes in three cord color options: white, red and black.
