It was designed in 1964, just after the founder of the Marimekko brand, Armi Ratia, publicly announced that she was banning floral motifs, which were considered hackneyed. Maija Isola defied her by drawing a series of floral designs whose style was so innovative and fresh that Armi changed her mind. Ironically, the Unikko motif has become the emblem of the brand. Chic and graphic, the collection of textiles designed by Marimekko brings new life to your interior! Founded in 1951, the Marimekko company is a state of mind, an art of living based on creativity, freedom of spirit and inventiveness. Its notoriety dates back to 1960, the year in which Jackie Kennedy made several public appearances in dresses designed by Marimekko. The brand went on to experience enormous success, which continues today with a range of clothing and decorative accessories in vibrant colours, for a house full of inspiration !
