Born and raised in Finland, Marja-Liisa Okko has a background in both design and interior decoration.

By combining her interest in natural materials with a keen sense of form and style, Okko Design has succeeded in creating products that not only improve the sound environment but also enhance the interior design of a room. This creation of products has also been made possible thanks to the collaboration with some of Scandinavia's most prominent designers.
