Jussi Peippo (June 11, 1933, Sortavala - June 24, 1982, Helsinki) was a Finnish interior designer. He is best known for the export collection of wooden furniture he designed for Asko in the 1960s, which was used in the UNESCO headquarters in Paris, the Rossija Hotel in Moscow and the Viru Hotel in Tallinn, among others. His style included clean and simple forms that emphasized materials and sparse colors. His products include the Tectonia, Alli and Hidalgo furniture series.
Peippo's last major interior design work was for the Hotel Presidentti in Kamppi, Helsinki.
Peippo graduated as an interior designer in 1957 and then worked at Asko under Olli Borg until he continued as a freelancer. In 1969-1970, he was in Singapore on an expert assignment for the United Nations. He received the Häme County Art Prize in 1976. He died at the age of 49 in 1982.
