About the Item

Brutalist elm dining table by Olavi Hanninen and edited by Mikko Nupponen in Finland in 1959 This Brutalist elm dining table was designed by Olavi Hanninen and edited by Mikko Nupponen in Finland in 1959. It is a versatile piece of furniture that can seat six to eight people or be used as a working table. The table has an imposing length and a thick rectangular walnut tray handmade in Finland. The tray features irregular edges that are 6 cm thick and rests on four feet connected by ties. The table has brutalist lines typical of Scandinavian design from the 1950s and is entirely removable. We have 4 tables available priced per table. Olavi Hänninen was a designer who worked on various projects, including furniture, trams, church silverware, and total interior designs for many public facilities. He was well known for his modernist designs, particularly tables and chairs. He worked on the interiors of the Palace Hotel with Antti Nurmesniemi and Olli Borg, where he designed a renowned plastic chair with a metal structure for the hotel's café. In the 1970s, Hänninen's designs included the new Valmet Nr I trams for Helsinki City Transport. Before starting his own design office in 1961, he worked at architect Viljo Revell's offices in the early 1950s, where he designed selected interiors for the Palace Hotel building that was completed in 1952. In 1957, he received a gold medal at the 11th Milan Triennale for creating a dwelling exhibition in the Finnish Pavilion. In 1977, he received the State of Finland Award for Industrial Design and was also an honorary member of the Finnish Association of Interior Architects.
