This is the place to be for fans of Finnish
design. At the old Arabia factory in Arabia (yes, the area is named after the
company) you find outlet stores of the most important and well known Finnish
design brands.
Since iittala, Fiskars, Arabia and Hackmann
belong to the same company you can find all their products in the shop right at
the entrance of the building. They have quite good offers. Also take a look at
the shelf with the second class products. They have small mistakes (that you
can barely see) and are reduced dramatically.
If you don’t find anything here, continue to
one of the other shops that are in the building. Browse through the Pentik
shop. Next to the café in the middle of the center you find a shop where you
can take a look at design products from smaller brands.
This place is worth a visit. You also easily
get there with public transport with tram line 6 or bus number 71. The center
is open every day from 10 and stays open till 20.00 during the week and till
16.00 on the weekend.
