Ilmari Tapiovaara, 1960
The Kiki lounge chair is part of the timeless and elegant Kiki collection, designed by Ilmari Tapiovaara in 1960. Tapiovaara wanted to design reasonably priced furniture for a broad public. In the Kiki series, he used a more clean cut design instead of the rather organic style he had favored previously. Oval steel tubing is the structural and unifying element of the whole collection. Kiki became a success, establishing the current direction for furniture design at this time. It is one of the most popular pieces of public furniture in Finland.
