The Marimekko Tiiliskivi Cushion Cover brings the graphic brick print to a sofa, bed or office chair, with a fabric-covered zip that makes it easy to take off and wash. Tiiliskivi, the brick print, was designed by Marimekko founder Armi Ratia in 1952 and reflects her belief in the simple beauty of everyday life.
Made in Estonia from heavyweight 100% cotton, it measures 50 x 50 cm and comes in Black / White. Follow the washing temperature given. Each cover is cut from the full width of the fabric, so the placement of the print varies slightly and every piece is unique.
Set two against a plain sofa, or mix it with floral prints for contrast, with more cushion covers in the Marimekko collection.

Drawn by the founder
One of the oldest designs in the house, by Armi Ratia herself.
Built into the cloth
On towels, linen and the bedspread the bricks are woven or knitted, not printed.
Two sides, two looks
Terry towels and the jacquard bedspread show different colours on each face.
A whole home
Bedding, bath, kitchen and table textiles plus fabric by the metre.

The beauty of a brick
Ratia took the most ordinary building block as her motif. The plain grid of Tiiliskivi carries her belief that everyday things deserve good design, and it sits easily beside bolder Marimekko prints.

Felt as much as seen
Bath towels and the bathrobe are organic cotton terry from Portugal with the bricks embossed in relief. The bedspread is a jacquard knit in organic cotton, light on dark on one side and dark on light on the other.

Linen for the table
The kitchen towel is woven in Lithuania from 100% linen. The runner and placemats mix organic cotton and linen, with edges turned and sewn to the back so they lie flat on the table.
Materials
- Organic cotton terry
- Embossed and two-toned; wash before first use and skip fabric softener to keep it absorbent.
- Linen
- Strong and quick drying, and it softens with every wash.
- Organic and recycled cotton
- 75% organic and 25% recycled cotton in the 200 TC bedding.
Armi Ratia was born in Pälkjärvi in Karelia and founded Marimekko in Helsinki in 1951 with her husband Viljo Ratia. She is one of Finland's most famous female entrepreneurs. In 1949 she spotted the young Maija Isola, and she shaped the house's bold, everyday approach to print.
