Cimmermann
Our passion is for modern furniture and lighting and is reflected in the selection of products we sell online. We believe in classic pieces that are meant to last, trying to get away from society's obsession with buying cheap throw-away items.
Our Design icon guides are an ongoing journal series exploring the designers who have shaped modern living. From timeless furniture and lighting to the ideas, environments and philosophies behind them, each guide offers insight into what makes these pieces enduring. Whether you’re deepening your design knowledge or searching for considered additions to your home, our design icon guides connect iconic work with everyday living.

Alvar Aalto was one of the defining figures of 20th-century modern design, celebrated for bringing warmth, craftsmanship and a deep connection to nature into architecture and furniture alike. Best known for his softly curved bentwood pieces, timeless lighting and human-centred approach, Aalto helped shape a distinctly Scandinavian design language that still feels fresh today. At Cimmermann, his work continues to inspire the way we think about beautiful, functional living. Discover more in our journal feature on the House of Alvar Aalto, explore our curated Alvar Aalto collection, or browse Artek, the brand he co-founded to bring these enduring designs into everyday life.
