Helsinki-based designer Rosa Ryhänen favors bold expression and freedom of form and function. Owing to that, she has designed the ‘Form Follows Intuition’ collection of unorthodox furniture, flaunting soft, wavy forms. The collection stands unapologetic against the backdrop of traditional furniture design with its organic forms and spontaneous structures, which look like a child’s scribblings. Her work usually features industrial elements, preferring local production and materials, revolving around the juxtaposition of art and utility.
Exhibiting at 3daysofdesign 2025, the ‘Form Follows Intuition’ collection is crafted using locally sourced wood and CNC-milling to create eclectic shapes. Each furniture piece is structurally unique and explores the spontaneity that arises in industrially produced objects. According to Roosa, they can be beautifully imperfect and exceptionally functional, brimming spaces with timeless essence and bold character. She exhibits that it is possible to display intention and intuition in commercially produced objects.
The collection consists of four versatile furniture pieces, including Sangria shelf, Marmalade lounge chair, Holiday coffee table, and Churro stool, adapting to the wide and eclectic needs of people. Let’s review the ‘Form Follows Intuition‘ collection.
Sangria Shelf
Sangria shelf stands proud with its organic, spontaneous, and uneven form. The shelf is designed to add a pop of color to the boring walls and provide the modern home interior with softness and personality. The visually striking terracotta color evokes interest and contemplation while bathing the space with warmth. It can be used as a statement piece or as a functional shelf.
Marmalade Lounge Chair
Featuring a one-of-a-kind structure, the Marmalade lounge chair strikes a fine balance between form and function. The astonishing configuration makes one wonder about what holds the pieces together. Truly a work of art, this lounge chair stands as a defiant presence of what quintessential chair designs and structures should be.

Holiday Coffee Table
The Holiday coffee table features a transparent glass top and curvy, distinctive feet, reminding users of the ocean and white sands that one enjoys during holidays on exotic lands. Designed and made in Helsinki, the table incorporates painted wood. It will bring an edge to any space, elevating it with subtle character and elegance.
Churro Stool
The gentle and curvaceous Churro stool is crafted from painted wood. Its dough-like form invites observation. Roosa describes the stool as a sympathetic creature quietly embracing a corner in a room, dwelling on imperfect curves and lines, and made impressive because of that.
