This book gives a detailed description of the life and work of Finnish designer Ritva Puotila. Her career had a brisk start during the boom period of Finnish design around the turn of the 1950s and ‘60s. She has become known for her art textiles and as an industrial designer. Her life’s work offers a perspective on the rich culture of design of the 1960s. It also tells of surviving through the ensuing economic recession and of meeting new challenges from one decade to another. Her rugs, Woodnotes, are used around the world.
