Winter season 2011 – 2012 at IDOLI

In November 2011 starts Design House IDOLI's second winter season under the theme LUX ARCTICA. Exhibition theme associated with light and lightning is so perfect to Lapland's winter, that we will continue it until summer 2012. During the winter months all the magnificent visiting Idols can be seen alongside with our permanent design Idols. There will be a number of novelties; art, designer lamps and other objects of use.

ARTEK presents a whole new lamp series, called "WHITE"'. WHITE-line includes four different types of lamps, designed for different purposes. Recognizable and unifying factor in all the lamps is the boldly minimalist design. With his white birch plywood lamps, designer Ville Kokkonen has reached the purest essence of light.

SAAS Instruments has brought to the exhibition a number of pioneering designer lamps, where movement is a surprising addition to the form. Hypnotic ”MEDUSA” from Mikko Paakkanen and the ”SENSE” Light Swing from Alexander Lervik have gained plenty of international attention. SAAS is the lightning expert of LUX ARCTICA -exhibition and has engineered the lighning of the glass pieces and the ambiance lighting of Design House IDOLI.

The Exhibition breaks new ground with Finnish “DESIGN COSMETICS”. "KIDE" - mineral cosmetics joined together the purest minerals (including diamond) and the Finnish eco-design for the first time in the history of cosmetics. Cooperation between Design agency Musuta and carpenter Kari Virtanen has resulted in breathtakingly beautiful, luxurious and ecological wooden packaging made of Finnish birch. Beatiful looks and products that consists of not only the purest natural minerals but vital skin care elements, meet all the modern woman's hopes of a new era of beauty care products. Warm wood and soft feel of the perfectly shaped box, and the dim glow of the mineral make-up on the skin provide long-lasting sense of well being. A refeshing alternative to the cosmetics industry's marketing, packaging and additives.
