Marimekko Unikko

Created in the 1960’s, the charming Unikko poppy print is always in high demand. Now hailed as Marimekko's most famous and successful designers, Finnish native Maija Isola created the Unikko (or poppy) design in 1964, just prior to the Flower Power emergence of the 1970's. A true trendsetter, Isola's Unikko print merged colorful two-dimensional art and large scale images to create this bold and quirky graphic print. She had always enjoyed working with flowers and other inspirations from nature but this was one of the first patterns where she explored pop art. Making the size of the poppies so exaggerated an enormous took her image from illustrative to graphic, a design element which was a catalyst for modern design of the 70’s.
