IntroductionBY
THE LEADING SCANDINAVIAN DESIGNERS
Muuto says hello
We are striving to expand the strong Scandinavian design tradition with new and original perspectives. In fact, our name Muuto, inspired by the Finnish word muutos, means new perspective.
Two pages
To us good design starts with the person. We handpick the brightest design talent and the leading contemporary designers in Scandinavia and give them the freedom to express their individual story through everyday objects. Some want to alter the world, others find passion in colour and shape and others still, draw deeply from personal experience. How do they see a vase, a lamp, a chair or any other everyday object? You will know our design because it has muutos. Objects made sublime through new perspectives, enjoyed across the world, representing the best of Scandinavian design today.

VISU
MIKA TOLVANEN ON THE DESIGN “The task was to create a personal interpretation of the ever-relevant plywood chair. I wanted my chair to have an unobtrusive and timeless nature that is familiar but never boring and without sacrificing function or ergonomics. Designing a family of chairs, visually releated but for different functions, was an iterative and thorough process lasting nearly two years. In the end, I think every detail is exactly as it is supposed to be.” DIMENSIONS height 78 cm, width 45,5 cm, depth 50 cm, seat height 45,5 cm WIRE BASE / LACQUERED SHELL white/white, black/black, grey/ grey, green/green, yellow/yellow, rose/rose, stainless steel/oak WIRE BASE / UPHOLSTERY SHELL black/Field 132, black/Field 142, black/Steelcut 190, grey/Steelcut Trio 133 UPHOLSTERY IN PHOTO black/Field 132, black/Field 142, grey/Field 932, grey/Steelcut Trio 133 PRICE lacquerd from: € 229 / £ 199 / DKK 1.695 / SEK 2.195 / NOK 1.995 / CHF 289 upholstery from: € 349 / £ 329 / DKK 2.595 / SEK 3.395 / NOK 2.995 / CHF 449

COVER
THOMAS BENZEN ON THE DESIGN “Cover is from a desire to create a comfortable and contemporary armchair in wood. I aimed for a crisp and vivid expression in the plywood while looking for a solid and grounded look in the frame and base of the chair. Three years of play and hard work in the making has resulted in a light, yet strong armchair, playing and taking the molded veneer to its extreme.” MATERIAL Lacquered ash or oak veneer shell, formpressed wood veneer base.

That way, the lamp embraces and shelters the table and people beneath it – both physically and in a more abstract sense. The recycled plastic felt even absorbs sound and helps improve the acoustics of your room.” MATERIAL PET polymer felt and rubber cord COLORS grey and black DIMENSIONS height 46 cm, Ø 82 cm, cord length 5 m MAX WATTAGE 30W PRICE € 599 / £ 499 / DKK 3.995 / SEK 4.895 / NOK 4.395 / CHF 749

ANDERSSEN & VOLL ON THE DESIGN “We wanted to make a sofa series with a light and inviting appearance, without compromising on comfort. The horizontal division in the seat is important, as it allowed us to add extra comfort in the lower part of the furniture while maintaining an airy overall expression. The Oslo sofa series is crafted on the west coast of Norway and with its embracing and rounded softness it stands as a natural extension to the Nordic touch and friendliness that characterises the designs of Muuto.” MATERIAL steel frame, Nozag springs, aluminium legs, powder coated surface STANDARD COLORS dark grey (Steelcut 180), grey (Steelcut 160), red (Steelcut 660), tangerine (Steelcut 550) DIMENSIONS 2-seater: length 150 cm, seat hight 45 cm, depth 73 cm, total hight 78 cm, 3-seater: length 200 cm, seat hight 45 cm, depth 73 cm, total hight 78 cm, pouf: length 100 cm, depth 73 cm, hight 43 cm PRICE 2-seater: € 2.995 / £ 2.690 / DKK 22.500 / SEK 26.450 / NOK 23.500 / CHF 3.749, 3-seater: € 3.195 / £ 2.890 / DKK 23.900 / SEK 27.990 / NOK 24.900 / CHF 3.990, pouf: € 1.150 / £ 1.050 / DKK 8.500 / SEK 9.950 / NOK 9.500 / CHF 1.450

The idea was to create a lounge chair, which is extremely comfortable – even without upholstery – and I believe that we have succeeded in this quest.
