Arktis at Habitare Pro 2026
Arktis invites architects, interior architects, buyers and public interior professionals to explore new perspectives on long-lasting furniture at Habitare Pro, 2–6 September 2026. At stand 6e80, Arktis presents the Rework concept together with new, expanded and returning furniture designs for contemporary public interiors.
Rework: giving new life to Arktis furniture
Arktis Rework introduces a more resource-conscious way to look at contract furniture. Instead of replacing pieces that have become worn or outdated, Rework focuses on renewal through professional reupholstery, refinishing and adaptation. The concept extends the life of existing Arktis furniture and supports interiors that can change over time without unnecessary replacement.
Rework reflects a wider shift in the furniture sector, where durability, repairability and continued use are becoming increasingly important. For architects, interior architects and clients, it offers a practical way to update interiors while preserving the structural and material value already built into high-quality furniture.
New, expanded and returning designs
Huup, created by Jouni Leino, has grown into a more versatile modular seating system. The collection now includes new additions such as integrated tables and armrests, making it easier to create adaptable layouts for changing interiors. Its clear aesthetic and modular structure make Huup a flexible tool for public interior projects.
Helma is a new collection by Mikko Halonen, launching at Habitare. The collection includes seating modules and a coffee table, introducing a softer modular language to the Arktis range. Helma continues Arktis’s focus on carefully considered details, durable materials and furniture designed for demanding use.
Arktis also brings Pikku-Kari into production as part of the Kari collection. Designed by Kari Asikainen in the 1980s, Pikku-Kari is a lightweight, stackable low chair made from birch plywood and shaped for children. The much-liked design now returns through Arktis, adding a children’s scale to the Kari collection.
Soru, designed by Mikko Halonen, will also be part of the presentation. With its softly curved backrests, wooden frame and removable upholstered parts, Soru connects naturally with Arktis’s focus on comfort, material presence and long-term usability.
