MARIMEKKO - by sanna annukka

im still on my working break putting together the final book layout and design - but i just couldnt wait until next week to post up these images. i heard from sanna annukka a while ago that she was working for marimekko, but this is the first chance ive had to check out the results. sanna who studied at brighton university and is based in the UK is half finnish so working with marimekko seems like the perfect match. sanna shot to fame a few years ago with her stunning artwork for the keane album 'under the iron sea'. scroll down to enjoy her beautiful patterns for marimekko, most of which i found here at finnish gifts. see you on monday the 6th april for an easter design special.
