Taika Sato launch
Abundant harvest of imagination
In my work, I have always been inspired by nature through science, still life painting and photography and have studied these subjects in my work often.
Klaus Haapaniemi
In the compositions for the Sato series I wanted to elevate vegetables and fruits in a powerful way that leaves room for imagination to interpret the forms and colours intuitively. They can be seen as colourful textures, abstract compositions, or a deliciously abundant and ripe harvest.
Klaus Haapaniemi
Sato compositions create a universe, where each object has a unique character instead of a repeating pattern. The objects compliment each other. Besides the familiar Taika shapes the Sato introduces new vases and jars designed by Klaus Haapaniemi.
Taika Sato is a new collection for Iittala and available in stores on January 3rd, 2024.
