THE BRAND BOOK

When we think of a brand book it often sounds serious, complicated and corporate. This is (hopefully) not the case: this brand book is simply a story about a brand. This is the story about a company founded in Finland over 80 years ago, that is lucky enough to be distributed around the world by hundreds of dedicated people who want to tell its story.

This book is a work in progress, not something written in stone. So please get in touch if you need help on building Artek’s strong and consistent brand identity.

ABOUT ARTEK

Artek was founded in 1935 in Helsinki by the young idealists Alvar and Aino Aalto, Maire Gullichsen, and Nils-Gustav Hahl “to sell furniture and promote a modern culture of living by exhibitions and other educational means.” Today, the Artek collection of furniture, lighting, and accessories designed by Finnish masters and leading international designers comprises objects that are extraordinary in their clarity, functionality, and poetic simplicity.

In the radical spirit of its founders, Artek remains one of the most innovative con-tributors to modern design, breaking new ground at the intersection of design, architecture, and art.

Artek Manifesto

WHAT DOES ARTEK STAND FOR?

The name Artek is a synthesis of ‘art’ and ‘technology’ – both key concepts of the international modernist movement that came to prominence in the 1920s. As one of modernism’s chief proponents, Walter Gropius had pronounced the reorientation of the Bauhaus and its affirmation of industry in 1923 with the famed motto ‘art and technology – a new unity.’

Technology was broadly understood to also include science and industrial produc-tion methods, while the conception of art extended beyond the fine arts to encompass architecture and design. Modernism aimed to achieve a fruitful union of these two spheres, which had previously been regarded as disparate entities. Technology was to be refined through art, and art was to be made more functional and objective through technology. This same aspiration guided the founders of Artek in their naming of the company.

WHAT DOES ARTEK STAND FOR?

Finland is a young, relatively egalitarian country. From the start, architecture and design made significant contributions to the development of its national identity. The great international success of Finnish design promoted the development of Finland’s widely acclaimed design culture, with which Artek is closely associated.

In Finland design is understood not as an elite luxury, but as an integral part of life.

Finnish design is exemplified by clarity and functionality as well as the pairing of beauty with everyday practicality.

In the self-image of the Finns and the way they are perceived from the outside, the characteristic natural features and topo-graphy of the country—the endless forests, the countless lakes and rivers, the Nordic climate— continue to play a central role today. With one out of five families owning woodland, the Finnish affinity for nature is not a cliché, but a reality of society reflected in Finnish design.

Designers such as the Aaltos and Tapio Wirkkala were consistently influenced by forms of nature and worked primarily with natural materials.

WHAT DOES ARTEK STAND FOR?

Artek products and processes are trans-parent. The products are direct and honest, nothing is hidden: their constructive logic is obvious, you instinctively understand how they are made.

The products are offered at a fair price, which reflects the materials and production processes chosen.

Artek is proud of its manufacturers and makes the origin of the materials and production processes public.TRANSPARENCY

WHY IS ARTEK DIFFERENT?

Artek’s products are not manually construc-ted one-off pieces, but are manufactured in series. The nature of its products, however, and above all the materials it uses stand opposed to purely mechanical and fully automated processing.

Artek products continue to be fabricated semi-industrially according to strict quality criteria with a relatively high proportion of handcraftsmanship.

Perfect uniformity is hence not possible or even desirable. Minor irregularities due to the materials or manufacturing process are not considered defects, but a natural and characteristic feature of its products.

In the production of the Artek collection—in particular the designs by Aalto—various specialized woodworking techniques are put to use, including a number that have been specifically developed or refined for the purpose at hand.

WHY IS ARTEK DIFFERENT?

Since time immemorial, natural materials, and especially wood, have proven them-selves as an instantly familiar part of human existence. They possess a natural beauty. They exude a warm and inviting appeal. They are ecological. They change over time and show traces of life and usage. The patina says something about the unique history of each product and this is what is so highly appreciated.

In addition, the 2nd Cycle platform offers Artek products, which have already been in use for a long time. Solidly made and impervious to fashion, these furniture icons have gained value and beauty through their everyday use.

WHY IS ARTEK DIFFERENT?

The Artek collection offers a range of essential products – furniture, lighting, accessories – to furnish private homes, offices or public spaces such as restaurants, hotels, schools, libraries or community centers. Many of the products were originally conceived for a specific project, but easily travel between the private and the public realms.

WHY IS ARTEK DIFFERENT?

Today’s customers look for enduring and authentic solutions, they make fewer and more conscious choices and want to know exactly what they are investing in, where raw materials and products come from, rather than commit to unrestrained and uninformed consumption.

Artek products are hence more relevant than ever. Artek works principally with natural materials and primarily uses Finnish birch for its designs. The use of regional resources and materials initially had an economic reason: in the 1930s Finland was still not very industrialized and imports from abroad were expensive. But soon, long before the idea of sustainability turned into a popular buzzword, regional sourcing became a conviction. Today, forests cover nearly two thirds of the surface of Finland. Sustainable cultivation practices go back more than a century, the stock of trees has increased rather than decreased.

The Artek Classics have proven timeless and maintained their appeal over decades. The contemporary products share the Classics’ clarity, functionality and poetic simplicity. Artek products are current, but never stylish. Many Artek products stay easily repairable or adjustable and accompany their owners over decades.

Artek’s conscious approach is also re flected by its pace of product introduction – we present new products, when we have something relevant to say, rather than following the rhythm of international fairs.

GRAPHIC LANGUAGE

White spaceThe use of white space in Artek layouts is one of the most important characteristics of the graphic language. Make sure you don’t create cluttered layouts.

Typography used as graphicsThe Artek statements and quotes can be used as graphic elements and compositions.Other contents can be treated in the same way, using the typography as graphic element. Underlining is also a typographic element used in the Artek graphic language.

Black and white stripe bandThe black and white stripe band can be used on the spine of publications and as vertical graphic element on the left margin of the layout.

TablesIn Artek’s graphic language, whenever tables are used, no outlines are needed: only one gray line at the top, structured by headlines in Futura Demi Bold.

ICONOGRAPHIC LANGUAGE

The Artek brand is also expressed by the use of product icons, both in outline and filled up shapes.

The icons are characterized by:· Sharp lines· Minimal detail level, very essential pictorial representation of elements

· Focus on the structure and main shape of the object

BRAND IDENTITY 2. Brand Elements

23

PHOTOGRAPHY

· Avoid the use of overly decorated home interior images;

· Enhance natural light, architectural elements, nature;

· Products should be in relation with archi tecture elements to define scale and to convey the “soul” of the space (textures, walls, architectural references, light incidence and temperature, materials and surfaces, etc.);

· Quality of imperfection: the expression of the product in space is not meant to be too perfect, too plastic. Spaces and objects are lived in, have character;

· Images shouldn’t be detached from life. They should convey authenticity and reality;

· Aspiration and warmth: images should make people travel, imagine themselves in the space. Warmth doesn’t come from decoration, it comes from the natural materials and the use of light;

and three other highlights from Artek

The Standard

Fall / Winter 2015–2016

Kaari by Ronan & Erwan Bouroullec

2

To design the Kaari Collection (kaari meaning “arch” in Finnish), Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec looked at Artek’s history with fresh eyes. In creating a simple bent steel band to provide support for a series of tables, shelves, a desk, and a console, they arrived at an element as practical and adaptable as the L - shaped leg patented by Alvar Aalto in 1933. While it has antecedents in Aalto’s own work, the strip has a surprisingly light outline. It could well have been drawn with the single stroke of a pen.

In the development of the Kaari Collection, the arch proved to have as much flexibility as character. The principle behind the pieces is simple: the vertical load of the tabletops and

shelves is held by a piece of solid wood, while the bent steel provides diagonal support. Both wood and steel banding are traditional materials that have featured prominently in Artek’s history, but they have never before been combined in this way.

The surfaces of the Kaari Collection are made from linoleum and glossy laminate, materials that develop a rich patina. The Bouroullecs’ designs are fresh in form, but, like all Artek’s products, they promise to last a lifetime.

The Bouroullec brothers combine formal brilliance with simple construction to generate a family of elegantly practical products.

Re - editioned in three colors, each faithful to the original design, the form of Tapio Wirkkala’s blown glass lampshade echoes that of the bulb beneath.Glass shades available starting 2016.
