Artek Domus Chair

Ilmari Tapiovaara designed this timeless chair in 1946 for the Domus Academica student housing complex in Helsinki, but it's been a staple in homes and public spaces around the world ever since. It's been lovingly nicknamed "The Finn Chair" for its comfort while sitting for long periods, especially for students studying. Another feature that was designed with this in mind is the Domus Chair's short arms, which allow it to be pulled close to a desk or dining table. The variety of uses makes it a versatile essential for fans of Finnish design.
