Yatofu unboxed the idea of coatings by exposing the numerous measurements installed within concept and fine art stories-- from kind and colour to products, aesthetics, durations, and methods. The event looked for to offer a fresh standpoint on Finnish concept, which, as Yatofu founder Angel Lindahl tells designboom, is 'experiencing rather of a renaissance, as internationalization got there in Finland a bit behind some other nations.'

Between recycling, repurposing, as well as reusing, Yatofu is likewise moving the narrative of maintainable layout methods. As Angela clarified to us, the priority listed below was to make use of products with an afterlife, offering a straightforward and straight option to refuse, carbon impact, and also extra.
