Discover Johanna Gullichsen’s distinctive textiles, where tradition meets modern design. Since 1989, Johanna Gullichsen has created durable, sustainable textiles that blend modern style and traditional weaving. The Normandie collection, made entirely in Finland, highlights local craftsmanship and responsible production. The Project collection, woven in Spain, is designed for demanding public spaces. Choose from fabrics by the meter, ready–made pieces, or custom items to bring Nordic design to any space.

Finnish design brands Durat, Finarte and Johanna Gullichsen have built an imaginative world of games and recreation to touch, play and discover the bliss of design. ”Don't forget to play!” said Finnish architect Alvar Aalto. Throughout history, Finnish design has been driven by bold experimentation and testing. This open and curious way of approaching and examining life has led to unique and practical solutions that have also been key to Finland's well–being, making it the happiest country in the world. Play creates space for curiosity, mistakes, and surprises. In Playroom, materials from textiles to furniture become a medium for artistic exploration. Playroom is supported by Finnish Design Info and Helsinki Partners.

Fogia’s mission as a furniture maker is to turn exceptional ideas into well–crafted pieces. At its centre is the factory, where wood, textiles and skilled hands come together, giving designers and craftspeople the time to explore how sketches become lasting objects. The aim is to create furniture that people grow attached to over time. This comes from balancing function with friction—the detail, tension or gesture that gives character. One without the other is incomplete. Working closely with designers who question conventions with finesse, Fogia shapes furniture that feels considered. You can sense it in the whole—it simply feels right. FUNCTION / FRICTION / FINESSE / FOGIA

Studio Kajsa Willner creates bespoke design with a narrative and a strong focus on materiality. Through artistic research, low–tech craftsmanship, and conceptual thinking, the studio develops objects, sculptures, materials, and spatial installations, often using waste or secondary materials as a starting point. The work centres around the relationship between people, animals, nature, and resources. By researching historical materials, crafts, and production methods from a time when humans lived in closer symbiosis with nature, Willner seeks to explore empathic ways to relate to contemporary consumption and production.

Fucina Frammenti is a sustainable brand with an online shop focused on contemporary designs that prioritise material analysis and production processes. The brand aims to find new uses for Noble Waste—processed or semi–finished results—derived from the production cycles of other companies. This waste is repurposed through thoughtful design, creating new products with minimal energy expenditure while adhering to principles of disassemblability and monomateriality. This formula, called Noble Waste Mix, embodies a circular production–consumption–reuse model. Fucina Frammenti continually refines its practices through research, experimentation, and exploration of new materials, resulting in a constantly evolving product catalog.
