pair of ateljee armchairs by yrjö kukkapuro for haimi oy, 1960s

designed by yrjö kukkapuro in the 1960s, the ateljee series became one of his best-known designs and is now held in the collections of both the victoria and albert museum in london and moma in new york.

kukkapuro placed great importance on ergonomics, believing a chair should be as good to sit in as it is to look at. the understated design combines a plywood frame and chrome-plated tubular steel legs with generous leather cushions.
