Stool E60
lvar Aalto’s four-legged Stool E60 is the most elemental of furniture pieces, equally suitable as a seat, table, storage unit, or display surface. Projecting a sense of relaxed familiarity, Stool E60 is equally suited to the home, public buildings, and educational facilities. The legs are mounted directly to the underside of the round seat without the need for complicated connecting elements. Thanks to its geometry, the stool can be stacked to save space in a spiralling tower sculpture.

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.
