Folding ‘Screen 100’ designed by Alvar Aalto for Artek
Finland, 1936
Birch. The folding "Screen 100," designed by Alvar Aalto for Artek in 1936, exemplifies Aalto's innovative approach to form and function. Made from birch, the screen features a series of vertically slatted wooden panels joined together in a flexible, undulating design. Its flowing shape allows for dynamic adjustments, making it both a practical room divider and a sculptural statement piece. The use of birch highlights Aalto's preference for natural materials, with its warm tones and subtle grain adding to the organic character of the design. The "Screen 100" reflects Aalto's ability to merge functionality with an artistic aesthetic, making it a timeless piece that remains relevant in modern interiors.
