Highest seating comfort: 611 chair by Artek
Are you looking for those very special and at the same time comfortable chairs for your dining room? Voila! Here they are! The 611 design chairs by Artek by the famous Finnish architect and designer Alvar Aalto come in timeless, classic beauty and with the refined cover made of woven linen belts they provide that certain something, that lightness and airiness for which Aalto already became famous in the 1930s. These chairs also have a high recognition value, are stable and are manufactured at the highest level in the Artek manufactory in Finland. Another advantage: these design chairs are stackable, which means that you can easily stow away the chairs that you only need now and then for a larger group of guests. With the 611 design chair, you have the choice between a natural-coloured and black linen cover. The upholstered seat guarantees maximum comfort.
Ingenious pioneer in furniture design: architect and designer Alvar Aalto
Alvar Aalto is considered one of the best designers and architects in the world. As early as the 1930s, the Finn amazed us with constructions that are still indispensable in the furniture industry today. Aalto is also the pioneer par excellence in laminated wood processing. Influenced by the German Bauhaus, he experimented with this material since the end of the 1920s and, together with his wife Aino Aalto, created numerous pieces of furniture that combined modern forms with natural materials. His architectural masterpieces include the Paimio Clinic in Turku (now a World Heritage Site), the library in Viipuri (in what is now Russia) and the Finnish Pavilion at the 1939 New York World's Fair.
Artek - always modern
Artek was founded in Helsinki in 1935 by four young idealists: Alvar and Aino Aalto, Maire Gullichsen and Nils-Gustav Hahl. With their designs, they wanted to promote a modern culture of living. The radical spirit of its founders still lives in Artek today and so the company produces furniture from the world of modern design that stands at the interface of design, architecture and art. They are characterised by clarity, functionality and poetic simplicity.
