Description

Marimekko’s Palko pouf is adorned with the Palko pattern designed by Maija Louekari. Inspired by pea pods, the graphic shapes of Palko, Finnish for "pod", form evenly undulating stripes. True to Marimekko's design tradition, the Palko pattern is boldly distinctive and gently organic at the same time.

The large and lightweight pouf is filled with small styrofoam balls and has a thick cotton cover that is removable and washable. Printed in Helsinki, Finland, the relaxed and elegant Palko pouf is perfect as a cosy pouf or footstool and it also functions as a seat by a low table.

Maija Louekari

Finnish print designer Maija Louekari (b. 1982) is well-known especially for the textile prints designed for Marimekko. Louekari has studied at the University of Art and Design Helsinki, and in 2003 she won a design competition organized jointly by her university and Marimekko. She has worked as a freelance designer for Marimekko ever since.

Louekari finds inspiration for her patterns from everyday life and the small things, people and sounds that surround her. Also different environments from urban metropolises to Finnish forests contribute to her work. Most of Louekari’s large, uniform patterns have been hand-drawn, and she also likes to experiment with different techniques such as paper cutting. Among her most important works are the Siirtolapuutarha and Räsymatto patterns, originally designed for Marimekko's Oiva tableware range in 2009.
