On 15 October 2011, Artek will celebrate its 76th anniversary by opening a new store in Helsinki, Artek 2nd Cycle. The Manifesto of Artek which sets out the firm’s philosophy, was written when the company was founded. Artek’s far-sighted founders created the foundation for an ideology in which sustainable development joins hands with enlightened consumerism. The original goals and values are still very much part of Artek today. The new concept store focuses on 2nd Cycle and vintage products.
