"It is impossible to create a new object without a point of reference. Nature is the best and nearest manual for industrial designers whether in terms of its function, in other words, functional requirements, or in terms of shape, colour, material and their arrangement in appropriate proportions." – Ilmari Tapiovaara
We are reediting the Maija series with one of the designer´s original details: the structure in nude rose, a very Nordic colour.
In the picture, letter by Timo Tapiovaara, Ilmari Tapiovaara´s son, during the Maija´s reedition process, 12th May 2016.
The Maija collection is an expression of the feeling of light that is common in the cities of the Baltic: from the inside out. Tapiovaara conceived a column of small metal superimposed discs from which the light hangs out from a shimmering panel, shrouded in life. Explore the famlily.
