AALTO CHILDREN'S TABLE SQUARE
Designed by Alvar Aalto
Versatile, adaptable, and extremely robust, the Aalto Children’s Table moves naturally between public and private spheres, as well suited for a library as for a family home.
With L-legs made of Finnish birch and a top available in birch, linoleum, or laminate, the table ages gracefully over time and lasts across generations.
Its legs can be exchanged as needed, so that the table grows with the children who use it; and its rounded edges ensure extra safety. All-natural linoleum offers the ideal surface for drawing and crafts, while hardy and easy-to-clean laminate provides a slightly more kid-proof option. Whether used for board games, homework, or building a fort, the table retains its character while offering endless possibilities.
DESIGNER
ALVAR AALTO
Magus of the North
Recognised today as one of the great masters of modern architecture, Alvar Aalto (1898-1976) was born in Kuortane, Finland.
During a long and prolific career, Aalto designed buildings for almost all key public institutions, as well as standardised housing and private homes. One of the co-founders of Artek, Aalto left a legacy with lasting resonance.
Aalto’s architecture is distinctively Finnish, strongly individual, and marked by a warm humanity. His buildings derive their aesthetic character from their dynamic relationship with their natural surroundings, their human scale, superbly executed details, unique treatment of materials, and ingenious use of lighting.
Aalto began designing furnishings as a natural extension of his architectural thinking. His first modern piece of furniture was created in 1931-32 for the tuberculosis sanatorium in Paimio, Finland. Artek was set up in 1935 to market and sell his and his wife Aino’s furniture, lighting, and textiles, particularly on international markets.
Through his innovations in form and line, Alvar Aalto’s name has also become important in the history of design. In fact, Aalto first achieved fame in Continental Europe as a furniture designer, and only later as an architect. His contribution to furniture design was among his foremost achievements in its own right. Aalto’s furniture and lighting form the heart of the Artek range.
