In 1936, Aino and Alvar Aalto were commissioned to design the interior of the Savoy Restaurant in Helsinki. Modern interior designs were drawn up in the drawing office at Artek, which had just been set up. The designs, with their new furniture and light fittings, were published in the press and were very well received. Kultakello, a graceful, brass light fitting, was created while the lamps were being designed. It was also on show at the Paris World Exhibition in 1937.
