Artek Side Table 606, anniversary edition, grey

In the summer of 2023, Artek introduced Aino Aalto’s Side Table 606 in two new colors to commemorate the 90th anniversary of the Paimio Sanatorium. The soft gray hue is found in the metal railings of the sanatorium’s staircases and strips painted behind the wall-mounted handrails.

Artek’s Side Table 606, designed by Aino Aalto in 1932, can be used as a table or stackable stool – it was originally used as a stool for changing shoes. Aino Aalto designed the versatile little side table while working on the Paimio Sanatorium project with Alvar Aalto. Thanks to its sleek, three-quarter-moon steel base, Side Table 606 is easy to pull close to an armchair, sofa or bed.
