From Thursday, September 4th to Sunday, October 5th, min\u00e4 perhonen presents its new collection, \u201cFLAT FORM\u201d, inspired by the traditional Japanese art of origami. Each design transforms from two dimensions to three, unfolding through the act of folding its pattern, like paper coming to life.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Alongside the new FLAT FORM collection,\u00a0 a variety of items will be available for purchase, including interior pieces such as fabric boards, cushions and blankets, as well as handkerchiefs, water bottles, and other crafted essentials designed to complement everyday life.<\/span><\/p>\n

In Finnish, <\/span>\u201c<\/span>min\u00e4\u201d means \u201cI\u201d, and<\/span> \u201c<\/span>perhonen\u201d means \u201cbutterfly\u201d.
\n<\/span>The name reflects a wish to craft patterns as light and beautiful as a butterfly\u2019s wings.
