The Chair 66 is one of Aalto’s designs. Alvar Aalto (1898-1976), one of the founders of Artek, was born in Kuortane, Finland. Alvar Aalto is recognized today as one of the great masters of modern architecture. He began designing furnishings as a natural and important extension of his architectural thinking. Alvar Aalto’s furniture and lighting pieces form the basis of the Artek range.
Chair 66 is a universal wooden chair in the tradition of classic kitchen and café chairs; its visible, additive construction logic is full of character and pleasing to the eye. The wide backrest offers comfort and flexibility, while the Finnish birch used to make the chair is both durable and lightweight. With its handle-like seat back, Chair 66 is easy to move wherever it is needed.
