ISKOS-BERLIN ON THEIR DESIGN PHILOSOPHY
“We see design as an art of storytelling. This story is normally quite complex, consisting of semantics, morphology, materiality, technology of objects and many other elements. But the clearer your story is, the more likely people are to understand it. The more surprising you make your story, the more likely they are to remember it. And finally the more you make people smile, the more likely they are to love it!”
ISKOS-BERLIN ON NEW NORDIC DESIGN
“Time passes, life is going on. Wild flowers of new nordic muutos are growing on the roof of the “museums building of Scandinavian design heritage”. It is more than natural – it is life-affirming.”
In fact, our name Muuto, inspired by the Finnish word muutos, means new perspective.
