About us

Born from a need. Designed with passion.
INTO the Nordic Silence furniture enables any space to accommodate a diversity of users and methods of working.

We create healthy and functional environments - sustainably

INTO Concept Oy, founded by Finnish designers, Hanna Gullstén and Jari Inkinen, is a furniture company that specializes in support space solutions and modular POD meeting rooms. Our INTO the Nordic Silence concept has been created to solve various distractions in open plan offices and educational environments due to a lack of support facilities.

Office interior design and work cultures differ from country to country. Yet, they share a need for functional design, quality acoustics and healthy ergonomics. Our INTO the Nordic Silence product portfolio fulfills all those needs with its unique and timeless furniture pieces and POD room designs. For example, all sitting areas of INTO the Nordic Silence products have been designed based on optimal body working positions, ensuring productivity over time.

Our INTO the Nordic Silence furniture enables you to work in privacy and meet your colleagues in a creative space. We offer virtually unlimited possibilities for developing working environments in more flexible and efficient ways.

INTO the Nordic Silence furniture selection transforms any space into an effective working and learning environment. Our POD rooms create a space of needed silence for short meetings or peaceful moments of solo working. They can be assembled without any structural changes or the need to alter existing ceiling or floor materials.

Our INTO the Nordic Silence furniture selection has been recognized with Fennia Prize Honourable mention. The Fennia Prize is a design competition for companies and organizations to support the creation of high-standard products and services. The Fennia Prizes are awarded to companies and organizations with an innovative and responsible design that is also of economic significance.

Inspiration

Our designs are inspired by the silence of Nordic nature. Just as the four seasons of Nordic nature requires several types of shelters, so do different modes of work.

By following the Nordic tradition of high quality and functional design, our solutions create comforting and inviting havens to retreat to during the day.

Design

INTO the Nordic Silence products are designed by our INTO design team in Finland and manufactured in Finland and the Baltic region. All POD rooms can be easily modified to the visual identity of any building’s interior design and end user’s brand using dedicated wall and floor colors and materials.

Clean lined and smart design makes all INTO the Nordic Silence products timeless and highly adaptable.
