Artek was founded in 1935 by four young idealists, Alvar Aalto and Aino, Maire Gullichsen and Nils-Gustav Hahl. The business idea of the company was "to sell furniture and to promote a modern culture of habitation through exhibitions and other educational resources." The founders of Artek advocated a new kind of environment for everyday life. They believed in a grand synthesis of the arts and wanted to make a difference in spatial planning as well as architecture and design.
Today Artek is known as one of the most innovative contributors to modern design, building on the legacy of Alvar Aalto. Functionality and timeless aesthetics are the essential elements in the creation of every product that bears the Artek name. Comprehensive furniture Artek system is based on the original idea of standards and systems, which originated from Alvar Aalto's L-system. The standard and systems thinking makes the furniture program versatile and allows it to be adapted for individual projects. Artek furniture can be found in different types of spaces, from public spaces to houses, museums to schools and hotels to offices.
