Marimekko

From sketch to printed fabric



Marimekko introduces dozens of new fabric designs each year. The progress of a new design from the sketches to the printed fabric begins with an exchange of ideas and concepts. The designer and the Marimekko interior textile team discuss in what form a design could function best and have the greatest appeal, what kind of soul it could have and in what context it could belong. Designers are not given any instructions or limitations beforehand. Instead, they are free to create and inject their own experiences and views of trends into the patterns. Marimekko’s collections thus achieve a varied and rich range of different worlds of patterns and colours.
