As 3daysofdesign unfolds in Copenhagen, Finnish design icons Artek and Marimekko reveal their highly anticipated collaboration. The Artek + Marimekko collection, a fusion of Marimekko’s bold prints and  Artek’s sculptural woodcraft, will be showcased in an immersive exhibition at Marimekko’s flagship store (Pilestræde 29) between June 17 and 21, giving visitors an exclusive first look ahead of its global September launch. 

Marking Artek’s 90th anniversary, the limited-edition collection reinterprets Alvar Aalto’s classic birchwood furniture with vibrant patterns from Marimekko’s Arkkitehti series, originally created by Maiia Isola. This partnership, the first between the two brands, bridges Marimekko’s fearless printmaking and Artek’s pioneering bentwood technology, resulting in pieces that are both functional and poetic. 

Finnish designer Linda Bergroth has transformed Marimekko’s Copenhagen store into a dynamic stage for the collection, where Artek’s minimalist elegance and Marimekko’s exuberant patterns come together. The installation highlights the dialogue between the two brands’ shared values: human-centric design, Nordic nature, and timeless innovation. 

The collection will be available worldwide from September 2025.
