Studio Kukkapuro
The studio will evolve into a home museum and a centre for design thinking in the coming years. The project is led by the next Kukkapuro generation, Isa Kukkapuro-Enbom and Ida Kukkapuro.
One Design for Each Decade
Beginning in the 1950s and continuing until his final days, Kukkapuro created iconic chairs across eight decades. For MATTER and SHAPE, Studio Kukkapuro presents one design from each decade, shown in collaboration with BLOND, Lepo, and Nikari. Meet us at the Jardin des Tuileries in Paris from March 6th to 9th.
