Iittala’s design story began in 1881 and continues to thrive at the glass factory in Iittala village, Finland. With a deep commitment to craftsmanship, Iittala is a pioneer of avant–garde design in coloured glass and ceramics. Every piece created is more than an object—it reflects the skill, artistry, and experimental spirit of those who shaped it, preserving tradition while shaping the future of design.

To celebrate 90 years of the Aalto vase, Iittala presents the Aalto 90 Pavilion at the public square in Ofelia Plads. Shaped after Alvar Aalto’s celebrated design, the pavilion invites visitors to step inside the form itself and experience an immersive soundscape created especially for the occasion. Within the pavilion, Iittala unveils its exclusive Aalto City Vases, presented as part of the spatial experience. The pavilion is a place for encounters, reflection, and sensory immersion—bringing together past, present, and future through one of the most enduring symbols of design during 3daysofdesign.
