Design Diplomacy collection

Type: Sofa, Bench, Table, Stool
Date: 2018
Client: Made by Choice & Mobles114

Design Diplomacy collection created with Mikko Laakkonen and Andreu Carulla.

Collection consists of a bench and sofa manufactured by Made by Choice and a series of side-tables and stools manufactured by Mobles114.

The aim was to design a new product collection, creating collaborations be-yond borders among designers and manufacturers, that perfectly suits and honours the Spanish Ambassador’s residence, Villa Himberg, which was created by Aarne Ervi in 1954. The collaborative project garners national and international attention by being launched at Helsinki Design Week 2018. The collection will be permanently situated at the Spanish Embassy in Finland.
