Tetrimäki – Factory of beauty
Tetrimäki's history reaches in the 1950 century when Tetrimäki influenced by a Christian community that helped Germans, Karelias, and Russian children. The German Lutz Reinhardt (1952 – 2009) visited Tetrimäki with his father at the age of 14. He returned to Finland in the 1970 century and was inspired by Tetrimäki for wood processing. After graduating as a master carpenter, Reinhardt founded the carpentry factory at Tetrimäki, Kuopio. He was agreed to manufacture Eliel Saarinen's furniture exclusively. The making of the Tetrimäki carpentry factory based on high skilled handcraft. The two elements of Lutz Reinhardt's professional expertise were beauty and quality. He called the factory "factory of beauty". The operation was genuinely Finnish manufacturing from start to finish. The timber obtained from the nearby forests and its sawmill and drying was the base of the high quality of the furniture.Nowadays, the equipment and operation are modern and efficient.

For new products, the classic armchair Grasshopper, designed by Eero Saarinen, is one of these skill samples.
