As Finland celebrates its 100th Anniversary of independence, I can't think of a better representation of Finnish boldness and freedom than Marimekko. It is a Finnish home furnishings, textiles and fashion company based in Helsinki. Founded in 1951,
Marimekko's goal was to create a timeless aesthetic based on creativity and freedom.
"Strong and distinctive product design is the cornerstone of Marimekko's culture. Since the 1950s, Marimekko's visionary designers have used shape, color and pattern to liberate feelings, emotions and ideas." - The Finnish Place
Marimekko is a way of living founded on love for the everyday life. It is continual creativity and freedom of expression. It is more than a home or fashion collection. It is a state of mind.
