I H A N A ARTEK !!! In addition to admiring Artek's and Vitra's furniture, upstairs you can browse quality magazines and Artek / Vitra literature while sipping tea. Downstairs represented e.g. Aesop . 6/5

Great showroom and shop of Finnish furniture design. Most famous designer is Alvar Aalto who's desings are the highlight of Artek collection. The shop is in center of Helsinki on a building designed by Aalto. This is not a museum but a shop so you can pick things here If you like them. Also just browsing is OK.

Disappointed with what I consider to be high quality products, at least some of which I found to be inadequate, such as the larger serving trolley, which, after a few months of purchase, is extremely low, even the seatbelt is at the break point at the front of the seat. Repairing expensive buckle belts costs around 500, although there is no need to change the backrest, for example. Very disappointed with the situation.

I was with my American boyfriend watching Artek's offer as usual and we enjoyed our time until a black-haired Finnish female salesman invited the guards to sniff after us. My boyfriend is a dark-skinned design student and sought inspiration from store products. We realized that the guards were for us (i.e. him) when we left the store and the guards happened to leave at the same time. Surprise! It is a pity that in 2020, darker skin tones will still be a threat to some. I expected better. We will not come again!
