About Aino Aalto

Aino Marsio Aalto (1894-1949) was a Finnish architect and designer. In 1935, she co-founded Artek alongside Alvar Aalto, Maire Gullichsen and Nils-Gustav Hahl “to sell furniture and promote a modern culture of living.” Aino's ability to blend form and function was pivotal in shaping Artek's unique style.

In the 1930s, Aino met the Japanese ambassador to Finland and his wife, who gave her a gift of silk fabric with a cherry blossom, or “kirsikankukka” in Finnish, motif. Inspired by the design, Aino created the Kirsikankukka pattern as an homage to Japanese art and design. The pattern was part of the standard collection of printed fabrics sold at Artek, used in interior design projects or for upholstering. The pattern is reintroduced to home textiles with this exclusive collection, made in celebration of Aino’s legacy.
