HOW DO YOU SAY THAT? A-EE-NO?
Pronounced similarly to “I know.”
“Aino” is of Finnish origin and means one and only or unique.
We want our wallcoverings to be your only choice because they are unique.
It also happens to be the middle name of our Founder’s most significant design influence (and the person responsible for all the crazy name spellings), her Finnish mother.
WHY US?
We are obsessed with elevating projects through patterns.
Whether we are your PATTERN CONSULTANTS or creating our On-Demand patterns, we believe that the soul of a space is strongly influenced by the colors, shapes, and scale used on the walls.
WE WERE BORN TO DO THIS
Aino was born from the DNA of our acclaimed parent company, HiiVE Creative, bringing us over 20 years of design experience in interior, brand development, and graphic design.
WE ARE NIMBLE
Utilizing local production partners means we can move quickly from ideation to production, allowing us to meet even the strictest deadline.
WE KEEP IT CLEAN & LEAN
We manufacture our products on-demand, eliminating stock, waste, and storage, resulting in a lower cost and a happier planet.
WE LIKE TO HAVE A GOOD TIME
The shortest path to creativity is play, which is why our process includes experimenting and playfulness as a path to achieve the best quality design solution for your project.
