‘As so often is the case with interesting things, this collaboration began with a chance encounter.’ says Marianne Goebl, managing director at Finnish design brand Artek. The collaboration in question is a new interpretation of Artek icons, produced together with California’s Heath Ceramics.

“由于有趣的事情经常发生，这种合作开始于一个偶然的机会。”芬兰设计品牌Artek的董事总经理玛丽安·戈布尔(Marianne Goebl)表示。这个合作是对Artek图标的一种新解释，它与加州的Heath陶瓷一起制作。

In 2016, Goebl explains, a conversation occurred on the lawn at a Cooper Hewitt summer party between team members from Artek and Heath Ceramics. Not long after, the two companies, recognising shared affinities for natural materials and conscientious craftsmanship, made the decision to partner on a series of limited-edition products.

2016年，Goebl解释说，一个谈话发生在来自Artek和Heath陶瓷的团队成员之间的CooperHewitt夏季聚会上的草坪上。不久之后，两家公司认识到对天然物质和依良心工艺的共同亲和力，就在一系列限量版产品上做出了决定。

Released in October, the full Artek - Heath collection includes six iterations of Artek’s iconic trolley, each topped with a unique tiled surface that honour Heath’s past with designs inspired by vintage tiles found around its Sausalito factory. Six different tile top designs have been made using new experimental glazing techniques that have been applied by hand. Each design is made and assembled in a limited run of six in Finland before the tiles are installed in San Francisco.

The collaboration also includes fresh takes on Artek’s Stool 60. First, a nesting set created in a trio of custom heights and Heath dinnerware glazes; and then also in a silk-screened ‘Universe’ glaze version, which was made with the help of acclaimed American printmaker David Dodde and transformed by House Industries. A matching ceramic Coupe platter is available separately.

这次合作还包括了阿特克的60张凳子。首先，在定制高度和希斯餐具釉的三重奏中创建了一套嵌套装置；然后，它也出现在丝质屏蔽的“宇宙”釉版中，这是在著名的美国版画家大卫·多德的帮助下制作的，并由豪斯工业公司改造而成。一个匹配的陶瓷跑车拼盘可单独使用。

According to Goebl, the two companies’ aim is to delight both longtime fans and a wider audience of design enthusiasts, who appreciate the timeless and the topical in equal measure. ‘We feel that there are conscious consumers out there who care about how things are made,’ she says. ‘These are the people we hope to reach.’

根据戈布尔的说法，这两家公司的目标是取悦长期的粉丝和更多的设计爱好者，他们同样欣赏永恒的主题。她说，我们觉得有些有意识的消费者关心产品的制作方法。“这些人是我们希望得到的人。”

The joint effort is capped off by an installation created by LA design studio The Archers, on view at the Vitra New York showroom through mid-December. Inviting visitors to imagine what might have been, had Edith Heath and Alvar Aalto — co-founders of Heath Ceramics and Artek, respectively — had a fateful encounter of their own decades earlier. The installation depicts a fictional meeting in a hotel conference room in the early 1960s, littered with evidence of a fruitful exchange: paperwork, a slide reel, ceramic samples at rest in an open suitcase.

这项联合努力被洛杉矶设计工作室“弓箭手”创建的装置所封杀，12月中旬在纽约维特拉展厅展出。如果伊迪丝希思(Edith Heath)和阿尔瓦阿尔托(Alvar Aalto)分别是希思陶瓷业和阿特克(Artek)的联合创始人，邀请游客们想象一下，他们在几十年前遭遇了一场致命的这个装置描绘了上世纪60年代初在酒店会议室举行的一次虚构的会议，当时到处都是富有成效的交流证据：文书工作、滑梯卷、在打开的行李箱里休息的陶瓷样品。
