Alvar Aalto simplified design elements to create a design that allows for various use. The Aalto Collection made waves in 1937 when first presented at the Paris world exhibition. The mysterious form made a strong statement against industrial production failing to meet human needs. Today it is an icon of a design movement.
The Aalto dish can be used as an everyday item; on the dinner table for dips or spices, in the hallway for keys or coins, on the work desk for paperclips or business cards, at a party for nuts or as an ashtray. Only your imagination is the limit!
