Trends pass quickly. They come and they go. Our mission at Martela is to create interiors that will remain fresh well into the future. For that we have some experience. Since 1945 Martela has been creating and contributing to trends and innovation. It s the knowledge of our history our experiences, successes and lessons learned that we rely on when designing our high-quality future classics.

4 Kilta has found its way into schools, universities and offices around the world and it has been displayed in the New York Museum of Modern Art. Over the years Kilta has had many followers in other Martela classics. Today Martela products can be found in all kinds of interesting places: the State Hermitage Museum, the Swedish Parliament and the BBC headquarters, to name a few. KILTA design Olli Mannermaa

INSPIRATION COMES FROM WITHIN Creativity, enthusiasm and satisfaction cannot be forced but we can create spaces in which they are facilitated and encouraged.

6 INSPIRATION COMES FROM WITHIN Creativity, enthusiasm and satisfaction cannot be forced but we can create spaces in which they are facilitated and encouraged. Inspiring spaces are good to be in and work in. Each office, meeting room or other facility should be highly functional but also emotionally appealing. Functionality primarily means ease of use and open communication. But the look and feel of a space is equally important its colours, forms, materials and overall layout. Ultimately a space must meet all the needs of the users even the needs that they may not be aware of. There is design just for the sake of design but at Martela, we keep the user in mind.
