In the year 2005 the fatboy ® marimekko was born. The Designer beanbag is developed and produced by fatboy ® the Original with Alex Bergman & team in
cooperation with marimekko.
The fatboy brand unmistakeably stands for quality and originality.
Marimekko is a leading Finnish textile and clothing design company where a strong and
distinguishing design is inextricably bound up with its philosophy. Underlying the
marimekko philosophy is the fact that design is inspired by the beauty of
everyday life. So it is not strange that fatboy and marimekko have entered into
collaboration. As from now fatboy the original is also available in two marimekko
designs: unikko and kaivo.
Unikko
In 1964 designer Maija Isola surprised the founder of marimekko with a number
of exorbitant flower patterns, just one of them being unikko.
Kaivo
When Maija Isola emptied a bucket into a well, she saw how circular ripples
formed on the surface of the water. This inspired her to create the kaivo pattern.
The fatboy is made of practical and easy-to-clean nylon
material with a special water-repellent and dirt-resistant coating. Wiping with a
damp cloth is enough to have the fatboy looking brand new again.
