artek K65 Bar Stool Birch

Design: Alvar Aalto in 1935 for artek

Concept: The K65 bar stool is a true classic - it was designed by the world-famous Alvar Aalto in 1935 and has been appreciated ever since. It is an example of excellent craftsmanship and design tradition, which has stood the test of time. The K65's structure follows Aalto's now famous L-shaped leg design, which is based on bent legs that are shaped in the same shape as an inverted L, on which a seat is then mounted. K65 is made of birch wood, which gives the chair a clean and elegant look.

The designer behind: You can not say Artek without also saying Alvar Aalto. The Finnish-born architect and designer was a large part of Artek, and is also behind a larger part of Artek's most well-known furniture and lamp designs. Alvar Aalto experimented in the late 1920s with various forms of innovative manufacturing methods, which also resulted in the creation of the now world-famous' L-leg '' which today can be found on up to 36 artek products such as the three-legged 60 stool, or the larger four-legged E60 stool.
