January Table
Harri Koskinen originally designed a long bench as the January product of the 12 DESIGNS FOR NATURE collection. The round leg and an interesting joint solution made it possible to design also two different sized coffee tables following the same theme.

Nikari
Nikari works in solid wood and very little else. Oak, ash and birch arrive as boards and leave as chairs, and the joint is the detail you are meant to notice: a through-tenon left visible, an arm shaped to the hand, a leg that tapers only where tapering helps.
The workshop has been at this since 1967, and the catalogue reads like a quiet argument for restraint. The January table keeps a plain top on four square legs. The Linea Akademia armchair gives a dining room something to look at without raising its voice. Seminar benches and sofas sit low and long. Periferia and Skandinavia chairs stack the same thinking into smaller frames.
These are pieces for rooms where the wood is the finish, and they age the way good wood does.
