ORNO – Light and Form

The Orno factory became known as a manufacturer of high-quality design lighting. The designers created a modern lighting collection, that received attention through international exhibits and was awarded, among other things, at the 1950’s La Triennale di Milano. The lighting collections, created by Gunilla Jung, Lisa Johannes-Pape, Yki Nummi, and heikki Turunen, rose up to the challenges of the time.

The exhibition is a collaboration of the Kerava Museum and the Department of Design at Aalto University. It is seeking inspiration from Orno’s strong design tradition. Students from the Product and Form -course at Aalto University School of Arts, Design and Architecture, have been given the task of designing lights, of which, finished prototypes will be produced for the exhibition. Design classics will be presented side by side with a new generations prototypes.
