Halo chair:
The design of Halo chair is based on a combination between a material and a technique.
The rattan is weaved as a textile. It expresses qualities, flexibility, resistance, and lightness
through the function. The Halo chair is a modern example of using a basic natural material
to create a piece of furniture.
Designed by Alex Estadieu in collaboration with Marjukka Vuorisalo, textile designer and Sokeva.
Project advised by Harri Koskinen.
Fausto:
A new active clothing collection that brings a touch of elegance and gentleman into sports wear. The collection demonstrates new ways of using reflection and coloured stitching to create graphic patterns. The design also plays with the element of seeing from a distance. Reflection is used as a form of graphic pattern from afar. Coloured stitching is used as a visual quality element from up close. The clothing range is suitable for cycling, running, cross-country skiing, and other outdoor/indoor oriented activities.

30ForSale Book:
There's a shift occurring in the scale of design production. It's being driven by a body of consumers who are interested in buying objects with a unique story behind them, and by designers who don't identify with mass industrial production, but decide to take a different route. This publication is meant to conclude, document and promote the concept behind 30ForSale.
It's a complimentary mixture of designed objects and articles from the design industry, designers, retail and producers.
