New Marimekko Flagship at ION Orchard Blends Fashion, Home, and Food

Marimekko’s newly opened lifestyle concept store at ION Orchard will lift shoppers’ mood.

Comprising both a retail and cafe space, the Marimekko lifestyle concept store at ION Orchard by the iconic Finnish design house is a bright and cheery space filled with its signature bold prints and joyful designs. 

The brand is on a mission to “bring joy to everyday life through its unique design language”. Find vibrant and colorful products – Ready-to-Wear apparel, bags, and accessories – that incorporate contemporary Nordic aesthetics in the 1,829-square-feet retail section. 

Making an impact is the Fall/Winter 2023 collection that celebrates architecture-inspired prints and archetype silhouettes inspired by iconic architects. The geometric cuts and oversized patterns might be a little loud for some, but are nonetheless head-turners. 

The home furnishing section comes complete with kitchen utensils, plates, glassware, and other products that convey a Nordic lifestyle. If you are not sure about them, pop over to the cafe next door to “try” them out.

The cafe, which serves as a showroom, welcomes shoppers with its equally charming interior that features a long bench seating covered with Marimekko’s signature Unikko print and birch wood chairs. It’s a comfortable place to enjoy a cuppa alongside a selection of cakes, tarts, and pies.
