Quote of the day: Marimekko’s Mika Ihamuotila

marimekko

“I often as a CEO say, ‘Let’s not be too commercial and please that segment of the market. Go to your own sensitivities, go to your own art, and do something that you think is relevant at this moment.'”

I agree wholeheartedly with this sentiment from Marimekko CEO Mika Ihamuotila, who just hired & Other Stories head of design Anna Teurnell as its new creative director.
