Aalto Basic Art Series

Alvar Aalto (1898–1976) shaped modernism with his warm, organic designs, inspired by Finland's landscape and independence. Rejecting the cold geometry of European contemporaries, Aalto used natural materials like brick and wood, incorporating wave-like forms in buildings, furniture, and glassware.

A champion of humane and socially conscious architecture, he believed in working with materials to create "a more human line." Key works like Säynätsalo Town Hall, Helsinki House of Culture, and Otaniemi Technical University reflect his vision, blending psychological and physical significance in post-war Finland. This book explores Aalto's groundbreaking, environmentally attuned legacy.
