My final post from Finland will take a look at an artist who has really made an impression on me: Klaus Happeneimi. If you haven’t heard his name before (I certainly hadn’t) it’s possible you’ve seen his beautiful illustrations somewhere without realizing it. He’s been commissioned by the likes of Iittala (for their Taika design, which has seen great success in both Europe and North America), Marimekko and Christian Louboutin, and he works regularly designing for various brands like Chanel, Dolce & Gabbana and Cacharel.
