Founded by four young idealists in 1935, Artek was brought into existence at the cornerstone of art and technology—curating furniture to bring minimalism, functionality and poetic simplicity into everyday living. With Helsinki to call home, this enduring brand is one of the most prominent forerunners of the Scandi style we all know and love today.
Available at UrlfreezeShops, the Artek stool is the very definition of a transcendent icon. Multi-functional, innovative and infinitely stackable, it’s made from native birch which develops a unique patina and ages gracefully through the years. Plus, you can be pretty certain that it’ll never fall out of grace in the style stakes—it has been in continuous production since 1933, after all. Try it out as a table, a storage unit or just somewhere to perch: there’s nothing it can’t do!
It’s an ongoing legacy for a reason. Shop Artek at UrlfreezeShops and welcome the pinnacle of Finnish design into your space.
