Lokki

The Lokki pattern on this cotton fabric is printed in Helsinki.

The cotton is organic.

Maija Isola´s Lokki is one of Marimekko´s most iconic fabrics. The idea came to the artist when she was looking at a window with a curtain drawn across it: the broad folds formed wavelike shadows in the sunshine. Isola executed the final sketch by cutting colour paper with scissors, which gave the waves the trademark living lines evident in the printed fabric.
