Otto Korhonen and Alvar Aalto

Artworks

Otto Korhonen and Alvar Aalto were a collaborative duo of Finnish architectural and furniture designers, best known for their innovative "bent knee" process of shaping wooden furniture. Socially and environmentally responsible, Korhonen and Aalto's designs took the most abundant resource in Finland—solid Birch wood—and manipulated it so that it could be bent into any angle or position. Together, they created a functionalist form of furniture manufacture that combined environmental concerns with sleek, Minimalist design. They described their distinctive seating furniture as “the world's first soft wooden chair,” and have been instrumental in shaping the face of Scandinavian design in the 20th century.
