Iconic Finnish Design Since 1951.
Founded in 1951 by the visionary Armi Ratia, Marimekko is one of Finland's most influential design houses. The brand is known worldwide for its expressive patterns, bold colors, and timeless design philosophy, which encompasses fashion, textiles, and home accessories.
From the very beginning, Marimekko has embraced emerging talent. Contemporary designers like Maija Louekari, Carina Seth Andersson, and Sami Ruotsalainen build on the strong legacy of icons like Maija Isola—the mind behind the world-famous Unikko floral pattern—and Annika Rimala, the designer of the timeless Tasaraita stripe design.
