Reading horse, book stand by Made By Choice with Katrín Ólína
Dimensions: 33 x 20, H34 cm
Materials: Birch plywood
Also available: natural oak / painted black or custom colors on request.
Icelandic designer Katrín Ólína has collaborated with Made by Choice to create home products that celebrate reading. Small Reading Horse is a small portable Bookshelf. It is a simple construction of two 35mm bent laminated
plywood tubes held together by two bars. In Icelandic, a reading horse is someone who loves to read. Books are portals
to other worlds. Icelandic culture has its roots in literature and Icelanders are avid readers and book lovers. Around 10% of the population will publish a book in their lifetime.
About Made by Choice: Nordic Happiness. Nordic Happiness is our grand theme and guiding star. Studies show that Nordic people are among the happiest on Earth. Nordic happiness is composed of authentic values and sustainable choices. The vision of Choice is based on the added value of collective creation while promoting sustainable Nordic values through authentic design. Rooted in the traditions of Finnish woodworks, Made by Choice is a creative powerhouse of collaborative thinkers, believers and makers, establishing a global brand for the 21st century. Committed to producing durable, bold and innovative designs, we combine contemporary woodworking methods and modern technology. Halikko is home to our 4000 square metre campus where we turn abstract concepts into tangible objects. Our team in our office in Helsinki coordinates all operations and installations. Made by Choice's agile, purpose driven approach means all new products are developed on demand, for a specific project and need, and carries the authentic story of it's reason of existence. Our products are developed and manufactured at our own factory in south-western Finland by some of the best craftsmen in the world. Choice is inspired by heritage and Nordic urban lifestyle. We are driven to explore the boundaries of our discipline to create new narratives. Choice collaborates with leading designers and ambitious interior architects on site-specific projects to create new urban spaces.
Choice was founded by Lasse Laine, Sebastian Jansson and Niclas Ahlström – based on the common vision and mutual values to create a distinctive, value-driven brand and a new design heritage.

Galerie Philia
Galerie Philia is an international contemporary sculptural design and art gallery representing emerging and established designers and artists. The gallery is the brainchild of two brothers who share a lifetime passion for art, literature and philosophy. Their distinct academic background sets them apart from their peers, as it sees them following a rhizomatic and transcultural approach in the way they select works. This involves combining elements from multiple cultures in what becomes a network of harmoniously interconnected roots, ultimately revealing the beauty of each unique creation. The gallery’s non-hierarchical curation sits apart from the ephemerality of trends and focuses instead on the true aesthetic quality of the piece – alluring and timeless. Unlike others, Galerie Philia does not focus on a single style – whether minimalist, organic or raw – but rather embraces heterogeneity. The Galerie Philia takes pride in discovering new talents, providing them with multiple international platforms to showcase their latest creations. As well as propelling the newest generation of 21st century collectible design, Galerie Philia also works with internationally known design artists. Galerie Philia has a strong international presence, with galleries in Geneva, New York and Singapore. In addition to their permanent spaces, the gallery organizes temporary group exhibitions and artists residencies in first-class locations around the world.
