Kaj Franck

Kaj Franck

Kaj Franck (1911-1989) is known as the โ€œconscience of Finnish design.โ€ Kaj Franck grew up in a world with elaborate dining services to sparse stone dishes. During his significant career, Kaj Franck asserted himself between the two extremes and profoundly changed our understanding of tableware. He utilized serial production to produce versatile, practical dishware at a reasonable price. Besides social consciousness, Kaj Franckโ€™s distinct career was guided by the desire to seek the essential. He studied basic forms endlessly with special focus on proportions.

Kaj Franck was a professor at the Helsinki School of Art and Design. His work earned him international acclaim and numerous awards including Finlandโ€™s most prestigious design award, which is his namesake. Generations of Iittala consumers have purchased Kaj Franckโ€™s successful Teema and Kartio series, making these standard household items a part of the classic design legacy of Kaj Franck.
