A new era
Industrial design meets interior design in KONE’s new elevator
wall decoration solution. It combines the stylish KONE elevator
with graphically unique and classic design from Marimekko. This
debut collection of KONE Deco™ Design features popular prints
especially selected and customized to suit elevators in residential and
public spaces. With a masterstroke of space design from KONE and
Marimekko, it is now easier than ever to fully integrate a building’s
interior design.

Add delight to any day
KONE Deco™ Design offers unique and timeless elevator wall
decorations to unify any architectural environment – private or public,
new or existing. It is a solution that uses preselected Marimekko
designs combined with durable, ultra-thin laminate films that enhance
the feeling of space and create a unique identity. Whether in a hip
hotel, a smart residence or an office development, now elevators can
be an integral part of the design concept from the first impression in
the lobby through to the heart of your building. Make your building
stand out from the crowd.
