Markku Kosonen (1945-2010) was a Finnish interior architect, carpenter, and designer known for his innovative use of Finnish wood species such as alder, aspen, and rowan. His notable works include a willow basket and a sauna cube that later served as a representative sauna. Kosonen received several awards, including the Rantasalmi Prize in 2002 for his unorthodox approach to the intersection of industrial design and forestry. His commitment to elevating the value of previously underappreciated woods has distinguished him as a prominent figure in the woodworking industry.
