66 Chair
The 66 Chair is a universal wooden chair in the tradition of classic kitchen and dining chair; its visible, additive construction logic is full of character and pleasing to the eye. The wide backrest offers comfort and flexibility, while the Finnish birch used to make the chair is both durable and lightweight. With its handle-like seat back, Chair 66 is easy to move wherever it is needed.

Artek
Artek was founded in Helsinki in 1935 by Alvar Aalto, Aino Aalto, Maire Gullichsen and Nils-Gustav Hahl, to sell furniture and to promote a modern culture of living.
Alvar Aalto
One of the founding figures of modern architecture. With his wife Aino, Aalto designed the furniture for his own buildings, the Paimio Sanatorium and the Viipuri Library. Bending Finnish birch, he gave modernism a warmer, more human material.
