How can Iittala's design language be described?

Experimental, energetic, curious, and bold, that's how Iittala's design language can be described. Iittala works with artistic innovation even as the core of the craftsmanship lies in mouth-blown glass.

Iittala's design philosophy - to offer timeless beauty and function

For Iittala, it is important to offer objects with function and beauty that work for everyday occasions. After all, what's to say that glasses and vases can't be both functional and beautiful?

Many of Iittala's glass collections are suitable for all everyday occasions, for breakfast, parties, and coffee breaks.

Iittala draws inspiration from the beautiful nature

Iittala draws much inspiration from nature and the sea, the classic Aalto vase is a good example of this. The vase has a flowing design, like the waves of the sea.

Another example is the Kastehelmi collection, whose name means dewdrop and the small bubbles on the glass objects are inspired by sparkling dewdrops.

Acclaimed designers at Iittala

Iittala is associated with a number of talented and innovative designers. One of them is Kaj Frank who designed the successful Kartio and Teema series. Two other well-known designers are the spouses Aino and Alvar Aalto.

Iittala's mouth-blown glass and vases

A large part of Iittala's wine glasses and vases are mouth-blown. This contributes to a unique design and an anchoring to the classic craftsmanship of glassmaking. Blowing glass is a time-consuming process that gives the objects more life and variations in their design.

To produce the Ruutu vase, for example, it requires seven craftsmen during a day's production. With the help of its solid history, Iittala has great knowledge and skill in the art of glass.

How can Iittala's timeless design contribute to sustainability?

Iittala's timeless design distances itself from today's throwaway society. With its functionality and timeless design, it looks beyond trends and can be inherited through different generations.
In addition, Iittala focuses on designing objects in durable glass with a long lifespan, in sustainable and beautiful materials. Many of Iittala's wine glasses, beer glasses, and bowls are dishwasher safe, which also contributes to functionality. And a guarantee of quality that lasts a long time.

Glass made from 100% recycled material

In 2019, Iittala was one of the first industrial manufacturers to offer drinking glasses made entirely from recycled glass. The raw material consisted, among other things, of leftover parts from the mouth-blown Aalto vases.
The glasses made from the recycled material are just as durable as the products made from new material. Iittala constantly works diligently to develop new methods of glass production, with the ambition to be innovative and save energy and natural resources.
