This new exhibition by Jack Self asks visitors to radically rethink their relationship with time: to reflect on today and speak to tomorrow. Inspired by the design philosophy and work of the legendary Finnish designer Kaj Franck, whose distinguished Teema series turns 70 years in 2022, it also asks us to be more mindful of our impact on the world today, and to think again about our obligations to future generations.

French designer Inga Sempé is launching her first collection for Iittala this year. This exhibition introduces her work drawing a line between art, craft and industry - a whole world of object’s making.

Learn the story of Arabia and Iittala - The history of Finnish ceramic art and glass design is now on display for the first time in one collection.

Take a peek into Design Museum Arabia which is part of the Iittala & Arabia Design Centre in Helsinki. Here, the history of Finnish ceramic art and glass design is on display for the first time in one collection. The collection themes are glass, ceramics, art and time – with iconic works from design legends like Kaj Franck, Rut Bryk, Alvar and Aino Aalto, Timo Sarpaneva, Tapio Wirkkala and Birger Kaipiainen among others.

Good things never age. Every bowl, plate and glass we make is designed to be used and loved from generation to generation.
