The Mono Backpack is made of organic cotton, and it features the Unikko pattern, which is printed in Helsinki. The large Marimekko “M” is printed in the front. The backpack has a zipper closure, adjustable shoulder straps, and two open pockets in the front. There is a large open pocket on the inside big enough to fit a laptop. The ends of the zipper can be attached to the sides of the bag with snap buttons.
Unikko was created by Maija Isola in 1964 and has since become an international icon of print design. The founder of Marimekko, Armi Ratia, believed that it was not possible to faithfully capture the true essence of real flowers in print, which is why floral prints were earlier excluded from Marimekko collections. So, Maija Isola designed Unikko to be an abstraction of a flower rather than a photorealistic rendition. Today, Unikko is a powerful emblem of joy and creativity, seamlessly integrated into Marimekko´s design identity.
