This "is a 28-volume set of monographs of the Finnish architect Alvar Aalto's (1898-1976) architectural and planning works. This series of books, which presents about five hundred built or unrealised designs, will be the most comprehensive work on Aalto's architectural output. Published by the Alvar Aalto Foundation and the Alvar Aalto Academy, written by experts, and including hitherto unpublished original material and new photographs, the monographs offer a penetrating view of Aalto's life"--Volume 6, inside front cover.
The Aalto House is a seminal project in Aalto's development from the ideals of orthodox functionalism towards the complex, tactile, inclusive, and emotive architecture of his mature age. The design development of the house reveals his rejection of simplistic rationality and the emergence of his personal thinking that penetrates into the experiential essence of architectural pleasure. In addition to essays by Pallasmaa and Suominen-Kokkonen, there is a wealth of illustrations, including photos, plans, sections, elevations, and measured drawings. Part of a planned 28-part series.
During the course of a career spanning more than fifty years, Finnish architect and designer Alvar Aalto (1898-1976) designed nearly one hundred single-family houses.
