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.
