Oh my goodness, I'm in love! When I was staying at Singla, I pulled a copy of Virginia Woolf's To the Lighthouse off the shelf -- purely due to the magic of the cover art. I'm so glad to be better acquainted with Aino-Maija Metsola's work.

Wow, this was so great! My mom turned me onto Marimekko back in the 60s. I’m not sure exactly how she knew about it, but she had a couple of amazing dresses and some pillow covers and I always loved the bold bright modern designs. The interview was just lovely, and I love the artist’s work. I found myself wanting to see a picture of your bowl, however. Do you still have it? I bet I’m not the only one…

Wow! Such a great piece, I loved reading it and immerse myself in Metsola's universe :) Maybe another interview with @fogchaser next? :)

I got 2 of those gorgeous Virginia Woolf editions just for the covers and I didn’t even know Metsola also did Marimekko (although I love their things). Thanks for interviewing her, so good to know more about the process too. 💕
