Tapiovaara said that “it is not possible to create a new object from any reference. And nature is the best and closest manual for the industrial designer, either in terms of the function that must be fulfilled, that is, to its functional requirements, as in terms of shape, color, material and adequate proportion. When the impressive figure of Alvar Aalto dominated the cultural life of Helsinki, in 1955, Ilmari Tapiovaara introduced himself as the first Finnish designer-non-architect. Specialist in chairs and furniture, he undertook the project of his only domestic lamp: Maija.

The Maija series expresses the feeling of light that is common in the Baltic cities, where the streets are poorly lit and it is the private houses and shop windows that radiate their light into the public road. From inside to outside. Under such conditions Tapiovaara imagined a tower of overlapping metal saucers where the light of a gleaming honeycomb, full of life, sneaks out. Originally the dishes were stick pink, and then white, both versions today offered by Santa & Cole.

A surprising luminous object, table lamps, floor or suspension. The Maija family is part of our collection of Design Classics, a set of objects created during different eras of modernity.
