Finnish people might occasionally love complaining about the weather – the long dark winter, the snow and slush, and even summers that are too rainy or hot. However, deep down, we’re glad our seasons and nature keep shifting. Besides, sometimes-extreme conditions can stir inventiveness.

Authenticity, functionality and genuineness – that's what Finnish design is all about. But are there still design stories left to be told?

Finnish nature and Finnish design are inseparable. The extremes of our nature – from the nightless nights of summer to the polar nights of winter – affect everything we do and design. We grant the Design from Finland mark to Finnish design that elevates and surprises, but more importantly, feels like it’s designed for you.
