Eero Aarnio

Eero Aarnio is one of the great innovators of modern furniture design. Credited with an array of distinct and visually striking designs, Aarnio has helped establish Finland in the international design market. In the 1960s, Eero Aarnio began experimenting with plastics, vivid colours and organic form, breaking away from traditional design conventions. His now iconic plastic creations include the Ball (1963) the Pastil (1968), and the Bubble (1968) chairs which echo the pop culture and the spirit of their time.
